“A happy family is but an earlier heaven.” –George Bernard Shaw
This can be true for many people because some people look at heaven as a place to reunite with loved ones that passed away earlier. This is because when they can be with them, they are happy again. If a family was like that before they pass away, then in the eyes of some people who would love to be with their passed away family, they are living in heaven. This is also true because some people define heaven as a place where all their wishes are granted. Most people in the world want to be happy, because that is one of the main purposes of life besides surviving. So if you met your goal of being happy, then you are in heaven. Some people think that just being with a family is heaven. I think my family right now is currently very happy and I think it can be considered an early heaven.
