Blisse, also known as Paradise (and distinguished from other places called Paradise by this name), is where the All-Creator willed that People began, along with created life as it is known. Everything there coexisted in peace, and there were no needs in the sense now present Somewhere Else, because of Communion with the All-Creator and because while People were particularly able to have wants and wills, they were always ordered for the good and able to be readily met with what Blisse contained. Everything "fit".

Happiness

While Blisse was plentiful, because of the perfect Love there, the perfect gratitude there, and how everything "fit", desires being met in Blisse would not match what People of the present Somewhere Else may at first expect. Rather than excess, desires were truly met in their best sense, with ends themselves being successfully sought after, rather than the inevitable dissatisfaction of means being converted into ends.
