My dream of Heaven

I apparently died with no wife, no kids, and not many book followers, but I did have a decent job and living. I appeared outside of Heaven’s gates with a short, dirtied white rob with a brown rope tied around my waist. There was dirt and blood all over me and as I looked up, I saw God and His people behind Him.
He smiled at me and said, “Aren’t you coming in?”
“I-I’m so dirty and bloodied. Do you really think I should come in?”
“Ha, the man who once swore “revenge” on Me is now sheepish and trembling before Me.”
Some of the people in the back start to laugh.
“But do not laugh at him since he has managed to get here. I will test you as to if you belong here. Close your eyes and hold out your hands. I’ll kick you down to hell if you don’t and pull you forward if you are.”
“Ok.”
I did as He said and get kicked in the gut. My eyes wanted to open but I kept them shut as I know I’m getting what I deserved. By the next second, however, I’m pulled forward and lifted up above God’s shoulders. My clothes are now instantly cleaned and the white robe I was wearing is now longer and brighter than it was before.
“Hahaha you’ve done it! Rejoice everyone for one of my lost sheep has returned!”
He put me on His shoulders and He carried me through the streets of Heaven while everyone rejoiced. All I did was just sheepishly stare in complete surprise and shock as to what happened with tears welling up in my eyes. We went up to God’s huge mansion and I sat at His left side and we feasted on all the wondrous kinds of food and drink they had. Eventually, people started talking to me directly about my struggles and accomplishments. It was a great party and after it, I saw the people who left me, family and friends. Some of my friends got married and had kids before they died. I’m somewhat disappointed that I wasn’t a father or husband, but what mattered was that I was with them. God allowed me to live with them and for the first day, it really felt like Heaven with them being with me. Sure, there were other things in Heaven like the Great Halls of Knowledge and Science, people sculpturing, painting, playing various kinds of music, and much more, but all that mattered to me was the people with me.
During the next day however, my friends and family barely noticed me. I couldn’t give hold a conversation with for a full minute which is strange because I could talk to everyone else I didn’t know with no problem. After the next day, it’s clear that I’m not that important to them than the other people around them so I left them at night time. I found a part of Heaven that has a dark room. I didn’t know if this was Purgatory or not but it sure seemed like it with how dark it was. There was nothing to do here so I just sat in the abyss and began to cry. This was Heaven but I was still getting ignored by people I wanted to care about me.
A girl who betrayed me before approached me from the darkness and said, “Heaven is not all it seemed to be am I right?”
“Whatever. I don’t want to talk about it.”
“I’m sure you can change that.”
“I’m not going to be some Anti-Christ or Devil. Go away.”
“Fine, but I’ll always be here if you need me.”
“I don’t.”
All of my friends and family appeared at the door to this abyss and tried to apologize to me and get me out of the darkness. They convinced me and for the day, everything was good, but by the next day, they went back to ignoring me. We went back and forth in this cycle a few times before I realized something. I was in Heaven and God is the most important person here, not my friends and family. I went up to Him and told Him that I was sorry for putting my friends and family above Him and we had another grand party. Jesus showed me to my own personal room in God’s palace and from then on, I was given a new set of friends and family to be with who gave me their attention. Even the Trinity and people like the saints joined us in our activities and we all had fun. This was a great taste of what Heaven is supposed to be.
