There are five people you meet in heaven. Each of us was in your life for a reason. You may not have known the reason at the time, and that is what heaven is for. For understanding your life on earth. This is the greatest gift God can give you: to understand what happened in your life. To have it explained. It is the peace you have been searching for. Mitch Albom
About This Quote

It really makes no sense to us to understand why something happened in our lives. It’s just that we do it every day. We take the circumstances of our lives and put together reasons to explain them. But why? This explanation can never be complete because there is always more than one reason for an event. So the only way to truly understand ourselves or any other person is not by trying to put together all the different reasons, but by understanding how these various reasons came together to shape our life.
