A thousand years have passed, yet I still wonder what heaven looks like. I imagine how I might have lived if I had been a bird, a cat, or a fish. The sky is vast and I remember how I could fly amongst the clouds, flying high and higher. I only wished I could live with my family in the sky, and perhaps one day we would reach paradise. However, being a cat and living among humans was not easy. Why did some people throw stones at me when I was only looking for food and care? Are those such expensive things to desire? So I wanted to live in heaven—a peaceful place. Oh, I was not happy as a fish, either! Why did I always have to be hiding in a safe place when the whole ocean was my home? I wondered what the outer world looked like. Those stars above the ocean felt like lights from heaven. If only I could see what heaven actually looks like.
