Letters (or Messages) To Heaven

If you write a letter to Heaven, are you supposed to put postage on it or would you have to make it business like with the sender's address in the upper corner?? With the letter going to Heaven, what would the actually address be? How would you send it up there? Would it be considered more of a prayer then a letter? If you were sending a letter to someone in Heaven, other then God, then would you need to put "Attn" on it?

I was in the mood tonight to write a letter to someone, but didnt know who's name to put after the "Dear." I ended up writing a letter to my best friend, Heidi. I actually started to write a letter, but then ended up on Facebook and just sent her a private message. I told her everything that was happening in my life at the time being. I also got a little selfish and told her that I wanted her back here on earth with me. The reason I would love to have back on earth is because I would love to have a reply. Maybe she can send a butterfly to land on my shoulder as a reply. Maybe I can get some healthy or good vibes sent my way as a reply from Heidi. Or! Maybe she will spit on me from Heaven (would that be considered holy water?). That would be the type of reply I would expect from Heidi (that would be an inside joke between her and I).

Do you think she got the message? I think she got it! I think she is giggling up there in Heaven because of the message on Facebook. I can hear her saying, "Bethany! You are nuts and a dork!" It was a letter that I should have sent her a long time ago. Who knows?!? Maybe I will try to write her one each week.

The letters to Heaven will probably continue, but I will never know if those have been received. I will hand delivery all the things that I have said to her in those letters personally one day. While I wait on that time to come, then I will keep writing till my heart is content. I will keep missing her. I dont know that my hole in my heart will ever heal, but I will say that letters to Heaven are helping mend the heart.

Dear Heidi,

I love and miss you, girlfriend!

Your best friend forever and eternity,
Bethany

My Job

Choose a job you love, and you will never have to work a day in your life. ~Confucius

I work in a research department for a medical group in Bloomington, IN. I love, Love, LOVE my job. I cannot even say that I consider my occupation a "job." Yes, some days it can be stressful and strenuous, but that can be with anything. It is definitely the most interesting and most rewarding job I have had yet.

When I first applied for the job, my one requirement was not to see patients or really even talk to them much. The reasoning behind that requirement is because I came from a job that required patients to call and scream at me...COLLECTIONS! I went to an investigator meeting (first one ever and one I will never forget) and I was anxious to get back and start enrolling the patients into the study. From that point on, I could not imagine my life without the patients. They are amazing! I believe, a couple of them will be friends for a long time as well. There is a special bond when you are able to get to know someone so well and be one-on-one with them.

Not only is it that patients that I love, but the traveling. This past Thursday and Friday (and Saturday for a little bit), I got to go to Dallas, TX for an Investigator Meeting. What an experience?!? I got the chance to meet some awesome people.

Its a definite that these people that I am getting the chance to meet and these meetings that I am being sent to will have a lasting affect on me for a long time; if not the rest of my life.

There is my thought for the day (or possibly months). Hopefully, I can keep up with my blog and get a thought on here more often then everything six months.
