Just read:The Five People You Meet in Heaven Simply told, this book explores what heaven might be like. Everyone has an idea of heaven, as do most religions, and they should all be respected. I rmbr asking Jon if heaven is a boring place, but the truth is we all wont know until we see the place ourselves. When i was young, i thought going heaven means growing a pair of wings.. haha.. i even wondered if it'll hurt when my wings do grow! Perhaps it is how the media has portrayed it, i've always harboured the impression that heaven will be filled with fluffy white clouds and beautiful music. What's your idea of heaven like?
Anyway, I like the book because it suggests that we sequentially encounter pivotal figures from our lives when we're in heaven. It's a refreshing idea to think that one of God's greatest gift could be to let us understand what happened in our lives. By explaining to us the reason why each event happened, a lot of the answers we've been searching for will be found. It left me wondering who could be my 5 people i'll meet in heaven.
I also liked how the concept of lost loved was explained. The author believes that lost love is still love. It's just love taking a different form. When our loved ones leave us, many sense are weakened but memory heightens. Memories remain and in some ways, they help us realise that we should be thankful that the love was allowed to grow.
