Silly Girl
While hanging out in the mountains last weekend we began watching the movie "The 5 People You Meet In Heaven". The movie is a Hallmark presentation for crying out loud and the kids decide this is the movie they want to watch. I've read the book and liked it, but the movie was just so-so. Nothing too great and yet the kids watched intently. They are very curious about death and where people go when they die. I guess that's why they were watching with awe and many questions. That and they were exhausted. They didn't know any better.
Their questions ranged from are those people ghosts to wondering how the characters in the movie died and of course why were they in the places they were. Because each character was in a different heaven. Brian explained that everyone's heaven was different. They were in the heaven where they felt the safest and had the best experiences in their lives. That was how the heaven was determined. (At least in this book.) Anyway, Darby commented that her heaven would be right where we were-in the mountains. Brian told her, "I believe that." (Darby loves the mountains.) Then she commented, "well either here in the mountains or at a water park." Oh Darby.
