Who Could Think of a World with Birds Singing?
Tell Me, who could think of the singing of birds but I? Who could have thought of such joy as this, such beauty of sound, so in rhythm with the beat of the Universe? The sweet song of birds sings that all is well. Birds sing that I, God, am taking care of everything, and that everything is on cue.
Birds sing My song. Listen and hear. They sing: '"God is love, and God loves you!" Their songs have many variations, but that is the sum and substance: '"God is love, and God loves you."
Like Goldfish
Beloveds, be like goldfish who swim through life. How effortlessly they glide! They go around any obstacle or above it and do not think of the word "obstacle". To goldfish, it's as fine to swim this way as to swim that. They do not have their heart set on one direction over another. Swimming is swimming. And merrily they swim.

I would like to thank Gloria and Anita Manasse for the oportunity to translate these letters into Spanish. Having done that for some time, I feel as if the essence of them has sunk deeply into my very being. Heaven Letters represent a wonderful way to connect with the source of it all. God - Love. This letters change the way we have been "trained" to perceive God, ourselves, and the world around us. We should take these letters and read them/hand them out to people who are feeling poorly, wherever they are. The comments of other readers have been most inspiring and touching.
