'Letters to God' is just something else. At first, writing to someone who's address and whereabouts are technically impossible to reach - at least in this lifetime - seems like a waste. A waste of ink, paper and possible hours of thought that went into it. But in the end, it's just personal solace that we're seeking. The assumption that He will read our letters and 'reply'. It's just to give us the assurance that someone cares.
There's something else. The postman. He was just a lost soul looking for redemption yet his answers to the letters are what started the revolution. So, we may be writing to a Higher Power only to find that it is right in our midst, in the people we least expect to find it. It lives among us, in us.
This is a suddenly spiritual feeling, I know, but it really struck me.
I might just try writing a letter to Him.
