Our 14-year-old dog Abbey died last month. The day after she passed away my 4-year-old daughter Meredith was crying and talking about how much she missed Abbey. She asked if we could write a letter to God so that when Abbey got to heaven, God would recognize her. I told her that I thought we could so, and she dictated these words:
Dear God,
Will you please take care of my dog? She died yesterday and is with you in heaven. I miss her very much. I am happy that you let me have her as my dog even though she got sick.
I hope you will play with her. She likes to swim and play with balls. I am sending a picture of her so when you see her you will know that she is my dog. I really miss her.
Love, Meredith
We put the letter in an envelope with a picture of Abbey and Meredith and addressed it to God/Heaven. We put our return address on it. Then Meredith pasted several stamps on the front of the envelope because she said it would take lots of stamps to get the letter all the way to heaven. That afternoon she dropped it into the letter box at the post office. A few days later, she asked if God had gotten the letter yet. I told her that I thought He had.
Yesterday, there was a package wrapped in gold paper on our front porch addressed, ‘To Meredith’ in an unfamiliar hand. Meredith opened it. Inside was a book by Mr. Rogers called, ‘When a Pet Dies.’ Taped to the inside front cover was the letter we had written to God in its opened envelope. On the opposite page was the picture of Abbey & Meredith and this note:
Dear Meredith,
Abbey arrived safely in heaven. Having the picture was a big help and I recognized her right away.
Abbey isn’t sick anymore. Her spirit is here with me just like it stays in your heart. Abbey loved being your dog. Since we don’t need our bodies in heaven, I don’t have any pockets to keep your picture in so I am sending it back to you in this little book for you to keep and have something to remember Abbey by.
Thank you for the beautiful letter and thank your mother for helping you write it and sending it to me. What a wonderful mother you have. I picked her especially for you. I send my blessings every day and remember that I love you very much. By the way, I’m easy to find. I am wherever there is love.
Love, God
Don’t say you’re too busy to reblog this.I don’t believe in God, but this is too beautiful to post! I’ve heard things like this before. Posties do a lot more than just deliver the mail!
Okay whoever wrote that little girl back is my new hero.

Woman Born Deaf Hears Herself for the First Time
The woman in the above video is 29 years old and received a hearing implant 8 weeks ago. This video is from when she turned on the implant for the very first time.
Fun fact: the world is a way more awesome place than we tend to give it credit for.

This is her first time hearing and she understands language perfectly??? How is that possible? People who are born blind and get their sight back takes forever to get used to it because the neurons that teach us about depth and perspective haven’t formed yet.

I haven’t seen FWB but that is a really generic summary. You can make one for all rom coms in general and be like, “a guy and a girl meets. They don’t get along at first but end up falling in love.” -_- No Strings Attached is AWESOME! This would be my summary:
Two friends who lost contact since childhood met again as adults. Though they get along extremely well, the girl has no time for a personal relationship. The guy, being understanding, hides his true feelings. Only wanting some sexual relief, the girl suggests to try a FWB relationship, though the guy only reluctantly agrees. This is a story about how to love someone who does not want to feel love.
