11:00pm last night

When we get to the afterlife, will we look back on our time here on Earth and remember everything? Will we still feel heartache over broken dreams? Will we remember the pain from a torn heart, the anxiety felt over things to come, the fear from standing alone in the dark, the frustration when things didn't turn out? Will we still be learning lessons from our mistakes we made here?

Is heaven like the Les Miserables song, a place where no one cries?

Is heaven just rainbows and butterflies?

I hope not. I can't imagine that everything will feel amazing if we are unable to continue to feel pain and heartache.

I wish we will be able to vividly remember our time here on Earth. If not, why do I risk being vulnerable for a boy? Why do I put myself out there and take my chances on life?

If knowledge is the one thing we take with us, does that include memories?
