Hell is a certain uncertainty. Its an anxious rebellion against ones nature and reflects the demon in us all. If "happiness is a warm gun" than certainly hell is the self loathing torment of mistakes well passed their due date. It is a pungent way of destroying yourself over things you have no control over: A torment of destiny.
If being at peace is repentance for past transgressions than hell must be the process that leads us there. The buddhists believe that life is suffering, and others would take that as saying life is hell in and of it self. This is not the case. If life were hell than how is happiness possible? This, life, is only a preview of both; hell because it's the best way to describe torment and paradise because it's the closest to nirvana anyone can humanly describe.
Tu-Pac Shakur once said something to the effect of, 'at best I'm in paradise, at worst its quiet, what's so bad about either, at least there will be peace'. Life is both, and some are tired of being torn between the two. If limbo is waiting, than life must be the previews for the rest of the movie.
