Did any of you watch the movie The Five People You Meet in Heaven? I had read the book by Mitch Albom already, so I had to see the movie. What a beautiful story! And the movie was every bit as beautiful as the book! This story really makes me think. Do you think Heaven is anything like Albom portrays it? Do you think that we will be taught lessons - the things we never learned in life - when we get there? Sometimes I think about dying, and I’m so scared about that moment arriving. Will it be painful? Will everything I know come to an end? Will the world cease to exist? Will it be like a dream that I can’t wake up from? The unknown is always scary. When I read stories like The Five People You Meet in Heaven, though, I feel a peace come over me, and I actually look forward to making the journey to Heaven. Don’t get me wrong - I’m not quite ready to leave this world - but when my time comes, I will go with a feeling of excitement for what is to come, not with sadness for what I am leaving behind. I hope that all of you have that same faith that there is something wonderful waiting for us on the other side.
