Everlasting ,tranquility and totally freedom of a lifetime of pain would be a nice start methinks?

Hey, even a half finished thought is better than none at all.

Heaven, to me, would be endless beauty in mind, spirit and soul. Feelings universal of love and caring and the ability to interchange worlds with thoughts and every being would be and feel warm, safe and infinite love.

Like having a really good imagination while still being in the womb.

actually, the Bible teaches that we will not spend eternity in Heaven.
Heaven is God's personal space, and He is and will be worshiped there.
Humans will be living on earth. at the end of the Book of Revelation we read about a new Heaven and a new earth, with the city of New Jerusalem. this is where humans will live.

the Bible refers to a paradise in Micah chapter 4;

And he shall judge among many people, and rebuke strong nations afar off; and they shall beat their swords into plowshares, and their spears into pruning hooks: nation shall not lift up a sword against nation, neither shall they learn war any more.
But they shall sit every man under his vine and under his fig tree; and none shall make them afraid: for the mouth of the LORD of hosts hath spoken it.
For all people will walk every one in the name of his god, and we will walk in the name of the LORD our God for ever and ever.

imagine a country estate in which you grow all the food you want without weeds or bugs or needing fertilizer.
imagine a perfect climate; no hot miserable summers, no cold winters, no storms.
imagine a villa in Italy. perfect weather, open space in the house, free food. hang out and enjoy life and visit and host friends. saddle up your flying horse and go sight-seeing.
imagine having the time to write books and film stories and paint and do whatever artistic stuff you've wanted.

imagine heaven being a nonstop worship service, but you may go and worship when you please and then return to your villa. a tv preacher once said, 'God is not putting us through this life just so we can go to church and sing songs for eternity, we're going to DO stuff'.
imagine exploring other planets.
imagine a dinosaur ranch (no carnivores! everybody eats leaves.)

the best thing will be the absence of all the pain and fear with which we live. ever have a toothache or pain that persisted, and how good it felt when it was gone? we live in this world with near-constant anxieties and we won't realize how much these things bother us until the next life when we're free of this negativity.
imagine a world with no predators. your kids can play down the street and nothing will happen to them, no bad people, no poison snakes, no hit-and-run.

I could go on but that's the basic stuff.

While the New Jerusalem will come down from heaven, Micah 4 is referring to the Millennial period here on earth and what it will be like before that time comes. There is a lot written about the Millennial period here on earth, but not much about heaven itself. What we do know is that the New Jerusalem or the new "earth" won't have a sun or a moon to bring it light. It will never get dark, so it won't really be like life here on earth at all.

I would like to have omnipotent powers where anything I imagine spontaneously becomes reality.
