    This poem by Emily Dickinson discusses the differences between earth and heaven. In heaven, all things are infinitely related with no division. On earth, relationships are broken through mistakes and affliction is experienced, but in heaven, suffering is only hypothetical and distress is unknown. The poem suggests that in the afterlife, the problems faced on earth do not exist and all things are united.

    "Not so the infinite Relations -- Below"

    By Emily Dickinson
    [Analysis]
    Not so the infinite Relations -- Below [1]
    Division is Adhesion's forfeit -- On High [2]
    Affliction but a Speculation -- And Woe [3]
    A Fallacy, a Figment, We knew -- [4]
    Poem 1040 [F997]
    "Not so the infinite Relations -- below"
    Analysis by David Preest
    [Poem]
    Heaven will be different from earth with everything in Infinity being related and joined together. Below on earth 'Adhesion' is forfeited
    through our mistakes and becomes 'Division.' But 'On High' in heaven 'Affliction' is only speculated about, and 'Woe' something we only
    knew on earth.
