Revelation 22:1-5 (NLT)
Then the angel showed me a river with the water of life, clear as crystal, flowing from the throne of God and of the Lamb. 2 It flowed down the center of the main street. On each side of the river grew a tree of life, bearing twelve crops of fruit, with a fresh crop each month. The leaves were used for medicine to heal the nations.
3 No longer will there be a curse upon anything. For the throne of God and of the Lamb will be there, and His servants will worship Him. 4 And they will see His face, and His name will be written on their foreheads. 5 And there will be no night there—no need for lamps or sun—for the Lord God will shine on them. And they will reign forever and ever.
As we grow older, our aches and pains increase. Some of us have parts that wear out and get replaced. A knee here, a hip there, a shoulder or open heart surgery to fix problems. Buildings age and get torn down, cars get replaced when there is no longer hope for repair. The "good old days" cannot be recaptured, we look back and wonder where the time went.

In contrast, in Heaven there is no more aches, no more pain. Our parts will never wear out or get replaced, our heart will be forever fixed on God. Nothing will age or need to be torn down. The "good old days" will go on forever. Time will be irrelevant.
In this world we are always in need of repair. In Heaven we will have no need for repair because you cant fix perfect.
