Wherever I was, I was happy. At peace. I knew that everyone I cared about was all right. I knew it. Time didn't mean anything, nothing had form but I was still me, you know? And I was warm and I was loved and I was finished. Complete. I don't understand about theology or dimensions, or any of it, really but I think I was in heaven. And now I'm not. I was torn out of there. Pulled out by my friends. Everything here is hard, and bright, and violent. Everything I feel, everything I touch this is hell. Just getting through the next moment, and the one after that knowing what I've lost.. . Joss Whedon
About This Quote

If you are in hell then it is hard to survive. The pain that you feel will be unbearable, difficult to deal with and you will feel like you are living in hell even when it seems like the world is all right. When you are in hell, there will be no time or place where you can feel safe. You will be filled with anxiety and fear and pain every single moment of your existence.

You will most likely be in a state of madness most of the time. If this is true, then what does it mean to be in heaven?
