The other I was thinking some day I will die. So anything you buy, all your money, friends, and family. You will leave them all behind. Which is sort of scary. Whats the point to anything we do while here any earth. Because in the end it wont matter. This day in age you have to almost go on to college just to get a good paying job. Once you get that job you work the next 30 years of your life. Get married have a family. Retire then you die. I know sound depressing but its the reality. Am I happy right now with my life I am living for the most part yes. what happens when we get to heaven? There wont be any more getting up at 6:00 am to go hunting or is there? what happens to our pets once they die will we see them?

i dont think there is any way comprehend how happy heaven will make us, i would think so happy that there isnt a 6am. who needs time in eternity. i have also been told bymy grandmother, who has since passed. That someday when i go to heaven ill be able to have to speak with my grandfather. whom i had not grown old enough to know.she said he has always been speaking to me cause i am already there i just dont know it. I dont know if that makes any sense, but i like it. There is no answer or no scripture to describe heaven, all we know is that its better beyond imagination. I would say to go ask a grandparent or an elder, there insight might make more sense to you

In a way, you just summarized the book of Ecclesiastes. Here's the answer it gives:
"Now all has been heard;
here is the conclusion of the
matter:
Fear God and Keep his commandments,
for this is the whole duty of man."
Ecc. 12:13

I encourage you not to think this way, I have been down that road before, and it is probably the scariest thing imaginable, just worry about your life here and now, you could live to be 100, you never know.
Also, it life doesn't matter, then God wouldn't have given it to us, I think life has just as much meaning as the afterlife, life is an experience all it's self, and don't fear dying, you proabably have many good years ahead of you.
God gave us life in order to learn how to live for Him, to learn how to Love Him, praise Him andto learn how to love and treat others. Think of this life as the practice roundfor Heaven, and if you are successful in the practice round( accept Jesus as your Savior and do good works as stated in the Bible, and keep God's commandments) then you will get to go on to the BONUS round in Heaven. The Bible states that" all the things of this world are temporary and that we are not to store up treasures on earth." The idea is that if you are storing up treasures here on earth, then Jesus / God is not the focus of your life.
By the same token, If you live your life here on earth for Jesus / God. then you will be happier than you could imagine ( true Joy inside your soul ) , and that is just a small idea of the true happiness of Heaven.
