Only that you relive that feeling over and over again. I fine it funny that you can come to grips with being nothing for a eternity and not being with God for eternity. Who would really trade the latter for the first?
Also heaven is beyond your imagination. It isn't like the world where you play a game and after while you get bored. There is no boredom. Therefore you wouldn't have anything to worry about.
See this once again is the arrogance of religious people.
You can't possibly know ANY of those supposed attributes of heaven. Most of that isn't even in the Bible (I doubt it's in the Quran) and even if it was it's all been prefabricated by men.
I understand that you have to believe in that stuff, but I do not and I think anyone who does, puts FAR too much weight in the words of his or her religious leader.
Oh and when you use the word god, I know you're referring to your god and I've read all about your god ... I don't want to be anywhere near that blood thirsty, bigoted asshole for an eternity.
Attributes? You mean how it's "beyond our Imagination"? The stuff in heaven are only similar in name to the stuff in earth. So you can see why it would be hard to imagine it. What you dislike isn't heaven. It's earth with infinite time. That doesn't sound to good.
And in heaven is your Sustenance, as (also) that which ye are promised - Surah Adh-Dhariyat
