Dante's+Inferno

Heaven I wake up in a place where white is all around you and the light is blinding. The last thing I can remember is that I was driving down the interstate at 1:00 in the morning. A truck pulled out in front of me and I rammed into it from the side. The air bag came out of the steering wheel and slammed my head against the seat. I just realized I might dead and I am in heaven. I looked around to see if there was a way out of this place I had woken up in. In the distance I could see stairs leading up to a random cloud; Also, there is a figure standing next to it. I didn’t remember seeing that there before, so I started walking to it. When I got close enough to see the figure’s face I couldn’t believe my eyes. It is Chris Farley! He is my favorite actor and his movies are my favorite. He told me he is my guide through heaven. The reason he is my guide because he likes to make people laugh and does stupid stuff to get people’s attention. I also want to be an actor and have my own show on television. My guide told me to follow him up the stairs to the cloud. He says a quote from his movie __Black Sheep__, “I feel like a horse’s patute.” When he says that, the cloud started to move to the side and a door appeared in front of me. He opened the door and warm air hit me in the face and light blinded me as I stepped into the door. When I walked through the door, I was shocked. It was an enormous hotel lobby and there was fast food restaurant with a voice command machine that would give you the food you tell it. There is a lounge area with couches and chairs floating in the air and a robot servant getting you food and drinks. A waterfall is in the middle of the lobby and gold lions are surrounding it. The television room next to the receptionist counter has 5 projection screens and 1 million movies to pick from. The receptionist behind the counter is an angel and has a scroll that would put you in the levels of heaven. He would look you in the eyes to see all the good things you did and if you passed, and he would open up the golden elevator doors that is on the other side of the receptionist. Chris Farley led me into the golden elevator, and I saw that it has 4 levels. Chris Farley told me we are going to see every level of heaven. The elevator moved from the ground level to the 1 level. We exited from the elevator, and I see a football field and the Bengals emblem in the middle of the field. I saw these Bengal players that are throwing the ball around and then Chris Farley told me to follow him. He brings me in the Bengal’s locker room, and I see Chris Henry sitting there. I asked him how he died, and he told me he fell out of the back of his pickup truck while it was moving and he died in the hospital from head injuries. He showed everyone how life can turn around even if you started off bad. Chris Henry convicted crimes in the past, but he changed his life and he showed everyone how easy it is to change your life. Now, he can never get hurt and he can have people looking at him as if he never did those crimes. Chris Farley took me to the elevator and we went up to level 2. The elevator door opened and I walked into a house. Everything was squeaky clean and the table next to me has a lot of cleaning supplies. The closet next to the table has different types of mops and brooms. Chris Farley told me to go in the living room and I saw Billy Mays. Billy Mays told me the way he got there was that he was sleeping in his Florida house and he never woke up. He inspired the world that if you put your mind to something you want to invent, then it is possible to make it. He helped people become famous by putting their inventions on the market. He now has people to help him around when he needs help. Machines clean his house all of the time. We left the house and went back to the elevator and went to the 3rd floor. The elevator door opened, and I walked into a comedy show with fans everywhere. Chris Farley told me to go up on stage. I walked up there with the stage light on me and then the light went on the comedian. It was Bernie Mac! He just got done doing a standup comedy, and he was telling me how good it felt to her the crowd clap for him. Bernie Mac told me he died of pneumonia, but he is telling me how happy he is living in heaven. The reason why he is here is because he brings joy to everyone and makes people laugh. He is nice to all of his fans and family. Bernie Mac now can relax without people bothering him. Now he can have his time alone with his family. Chris Farley takes me to the elevator and press level 4. He told me this is the best level. The door opens and I see stairs leading up to a big cloud and a big chair is on the cloud. Chris Farley leads me up to the cloud, and I see God seating in the chair blessing souls. He is in a white robe with a long brown beard and blue eyes. He has a holy stick that controls all of life and he has angels around him praying to him. God turned to me and told me that everyone can have a second chance to turn their life around. “Now, it is your turn to have a second chance!” He said. Chris Farley turned at me and said goodbye to me and told me to go stand in the holy pond. The water started to glow, and then God put his hand on my head and snapped his finger. The pond sucked me under water and swirled me around. I woke up in the hospital on a bed with bandages around my head and my arms .That was a sign for me to change my life around, so I have learned that every person has a second chance in life. Also life can go by short so live it strong and don’t give up on anything or anybody.

Reflection: My essay “Heaven,” shows the journey to get somewhere nice. A soccer game is the same way, because you have to win a game to move on to the next place. You have to go through a journey of soccer games to get to the finals. Just like how Chris Farley god to the last level of heaven. You have to find your way there and work your way to the top.
