YOU MEAN THERE REALLY IS A HEAVEN?!!
All of us have our days when they are so-so or even boring or ho-hum. In fact I'd guess that the majority of mankind's days on earth are fairly average and unexciting. Few are the days where we are excited like perhaps a Birthday! or Christmas! or Mothers/Fathers Days! The first day of Summer Holidays for students or our 3 weeks vacation from work are exceptional days! But most days are filled with the run-of-the-mill ordinary exercises. But still we go about our days with mankind as a whole, and dream of a Utopia! Is there such a place? For those of you who have been a generous sort, and have given of your hard earned money for relief for victims of tragedies, or just for the benefit of needy children. Those of you who have given the benefit of the doubt to the other one. Those of you who have paid the pizza bill and have had to give the extra buck, or who have had to drive the loser home from the party. Those of you who had to clean up someone else's mess, or have taken the blame for someone when you know it wasn't you, and who have given a helping hand to a stranger or neighbor asking for a cup of sugar. Who have given your shoulder for someone to cry on, and reached out instead of even making the needy ask. These and so much more seem like they are tossed to the wind and will never be noticed. But I say: it has been written somewhere that: "cast your bread upon the waters and after many days it will return unto you". Yes, there is a Heaven! For those who have lived with an eye on their neighbor, there is a Heaven and in Old Age noone will be able to deny you that outlook that gets brighter and brighter with each passing day!!

hey Ray, you have it right my friend. These seemingly un-noticed acts of kindness in what might feel like an uneventful day will be repaid in kind.
I have to answer your last email here on your blog comment field, so sorry but Yahoo has been ugly today and won't let me send any mail right now. Your prayers for my brother-in-law are so appreciated and God answered all the prayers. He didn't have to have a bypass - they were able to fix the blockages with stents. Thank you Ray, the prayers and thoughts were a comfort and so very appreciated.
