"Because, deep in the soul, people know that all life is interrelated. When death takes away one person, it also leaves another person behind. In the short distance between being taken away and being left behind, life has changed.
You said you should be dead, not me. But when I was on earth, people died for me. This kind of thing happens every day No sooner had you left for a minute than lightning struck the place where you had been. The plane you may be on crashed. Your colleague is ill, but you are not. We think these things are accidental, but all these things have a certain balance. One has withered and the other is growing. Life and death are part of a whole. "
"Strangers are just family members you haven't met yet."
"death? Death is not the end of everything. We thought it was. However, what happened on earth is only the beginning. "
If Eddie loses something,
"I think this is the same as the story of Adam and Eve in the Bible?" The captain said. "It's Adam's first time to spend the night on earth, right? When he lay down to sleep. He thought it was all over, didn't he? He doesn't know what sleep is. His eyes closed. He thinks he's going to die, doesn't he? Of course he won't leave. He woke up the next morning, a whole new world was waiting for him to explore, and he had another thing. He owns yesterday. "
"Sometimes, when you sacrifice something precious, you don't really lose it. You just passed it on to another person. "
comment
The first chapter of the book was named the end by the author. This arrangement really makes me feel novel, but when I think about it, some stories are destined to start with endings-in fact, all endings are not the beginning.
This is the second book by Mickey albo that I have read. His words always give people a warm feeling. The previous "Tuesday with Murray" ended with Murray's sudden death, and the documentary "Five people you met in heaven" was replaced by fiction; Death evolved from the end to the beginning; The protagonist is still an old man, not a professor who understands the world, but a veteran and playground maintenance worker who is afraid of life and death. Mickey wrote in the preface: "I hope my uncle and those who feel insignificant in this world like him will finally understand how important and loved they used to be." At that moment, I felt that the whole world was as soft as velvet, and I used to feel inferior. It was the author who touched me with words and made me regain my confidence. Oh, no, it's not just confidence. He gave me a vivid life lesson.
His name is Eddie. On his 83rd birthday, he died on the playground to save a girl who was in danger in an accident. When he woke up, Eddie was already in heaven, only to find that it was not an idyllic Garden of Eden, but an overlapping reproduction of life fragments on the earth. Five people remembered or ignored or forgotten by Eddie appeared in turn, leading him to find the lost time and ask the answer to life.
"Five People You Meet in Heaven" uses vivid language description and action description, so that everyone who finishes reading this book becomes a link in a chain and shares the same secret: each of us will influence another person, and all kinds of stories in the world are the same in the final analysis.
Eddie in the article is lucky, and the fear and guilt that have plagued him all his life have finally been answered, freeing him. But at the same time, he was sad, and when he wanted to be nice to the people around him, it was too late.
We, the unknown you and me, how inextricably linked are we?
We are all connected, and no one can separate one life from another. Then, since we are still alive, we can really care about someone, so why not? Let's fall in love on earth first.
I think: I want to give more love to my lover, more care to my friends, more efforts to my dreams and more smiles to my enemies.
If I can do it.
Heaven is everywhere.
Five People You Meet in Heaven is a very good book, which allows us to evaluate the book written by mitch albom, a famous American columnist, radio host and TV commentator, with a perfect score of five stars.
This is a book about death and heaven. Generally, books on this topic are mysterious or scary, but when we finish reading this book, we feel not ghostly and empty, but sunny. It gives us a perspective, jumping out of daily disputes and reviewing people's lives.
The hero of this book is a white-haired old man and a playground maintenance worker. Because of a mistake when he was young, he was crippled and disabled by the captain. His name is Eddie.
On his eighty-third birthday, Eddie lost his life trying to save a little girl in danger in an amusement park accident. When he woke up, Eddie was already in heaven. Only then did he realize that it was not the idyllic Garden of Eden, but the overlapping of life fragments on the earth. At this moment, the story begins ... Eddie meets five people he remembers, ignores or forgets in heaven. They appeared in turn, leading him to find the lost time. The answer to questioning life: The first one is a blue man named Joseph Kuichik, the second one is a captain of Eddie in the war, the third one is a woman named Ruby, the fourth one is Eddie's wife Margaret, and the fifth one is a little girl named Tara. Everyone will give Eddie a lesson, tell him something, tell him something he doesn't know.
I understand that everyone's life is connected, everyone should know how to sow the seeds of love, and what happens to everyone may be implicated one by one. Finally, at the end of the story, Eddie finally realized that he thought there was no doubt about his life in this world. In fact, this is the value of his life.
The five people you met in heaven told the story of a lame old man who died to save a little girl. In heaven, you met five people, including a boss and a dead wife. . It feels quite interesting.

The five people you meet in heaven make everyone who finishes reading this book become a link in a chain and share the same secret: in heaven, there will be five people waiting for you to grow up, fall in love, grow old and die, and five different memories waiting to answer your last question.

4. "Five people you met in heaven" The first person Eddie met was a stranger with blue skin.
One day, little Eddie and his friends were playing ball in the street, and the blue man happened to drive by. In order to avoid Eddie who picked up the ball, the man in blue quickly turned around, the car lost control and finally hit the back of a parked truck. The man in blue had a bad heart and died of a heart attack on the spot. But Edison didn't know this before. Eddie felt very sorry after hearing the story of the blue-skinned man in heaven.
The man in blue didn't blame him, but told him that death took one person and left another at the same time. In the short distance between being taken away and being left behind, life has changed. Life is meaningless without it. Only when we feel lonely are we wasting our lives.
Strangely enough, because the blue man was Eddie's father's colleague and worked in Ruby Pierre, although little Eddie knew nothing about the death of the blue man, he also attended the blue man's funeral under his father's leadership. The author seems to be telling us that even if you are strangers, you may still be inextricably linked, and even this stranger will affect your life.
The second man The second man Eddie met was a captain he met in the Nanyang Theater in the Philippines when he participated in World War II, and he was also Eddie's commander at that time. At that time, they were tortured after being captured by the Japanese army, and finally seized the opportunity to escape. However, in the process of escape, Eddie set fire to a house that he thought was uninhabited because of their hatred for the Japanese army's mistreatment of prisoners of war. Later, Eddie found someone in the fire and prepared to save people. At this moment, someone shot him in the leg, and he immediately fainted.
Eddie's movement was restricted because of his leg injury. Eddie thinks this leg injury has affected the realization of his dream of becoming an engineer and leaving Ruby Pierre amusement park. To this end, Eddie cursed the man who shot him for life. In heaven, the captain told Eddie that he shot and wounded Eddie that year.
Eddie was surprised and angry, but the captain told Eddie that according to his own experience, this was the only way to stop Eddie from dying in the fire. Later, the captain accidentally stepped on a mine while exploring the driving route, and the whole person was blown to pieces.
The captain told Eddie that death is not the end of everything. Self-sacrifice is actually a part of life.
You should be proud of your sacrifice. Loss is just the meaning of sacrifice. Sometimes you feel that you have lost something, but in fact you just passed it on to others. Eddie also learned to treat his lame leg with peace of mind.
The third person The third person is Ruby, the wife of the founder of the amusement park. She told Eddie about her experience, and she also took Eddie to see the truth of Eddie's father's death-to save a friend.
One day, this friend lost his job. He went to Eddie's house to find Eddie's father while drinking wine. Eddie's father just went out. Eddie's mother received him, but he wanted to be lenient with Eddie's mother. Eddie's father came home just at this time. Seeing this, he was very angry. His friend ran away quickly. Angry Eddie's father chased him out and chased him to the beach. His friend jumped down. This friend helped Eddie's father find his first job. Eddie's father is very loyal. He taught Eddie to forgive and forgive.
Eddie also forgave his father who was strict with him since he was a child. In fact, I think forgiving others is also forgiving myself.
The fourth person The fourth person is his wife Margaret who died at the age of 47. Eddie and his wife Margaret loved each other very much. In the days after her death, Eddie missed her very much.
In this meeting in heaven, Margaret told Eddie that although life has an end, true love lasts forever. The lost love is still love, but in a different form. Memory becomes your partner, you embrace it and dance. Life will end, but love will not.
Eddie also learned how to face the death of his partner. The fifth person The fifth person is the person in the house that Eddie tried to save after setting fire in the Philippines-a Filipino girl Tara who is about five or six years old.
At that time, the war was raging. Tara's mother told Tara to hide in an abandoned hut and told her that she would come back soon after going out, but Tara died because of Eddie's arson. Eddie, who knew the truth, was very sorry and sad when he faced Tara, who was burned beyond recognition. In Tara's paradise, Tara made Eddie wash the scar off his face with water and forgave Eddie.
Whether Eddie successfully saved the little girl on the playground was also answered by Tara. Tara told Eddie that he had saved the little girl. He pushed her away. The hand he is holding is hers. She took Eddie to heaven.
Tara told Eddie that although he set fire to her life, Eddie worked very seriously in the playground and carefully checked and maintained the amusement facilities every day to ensure the safety of the children. Living is very meaningful. The world is full of stories, but they are all the same.
Every story seems to untie a knot in Eddie's heart-the leg injury that he thought affected his life, the grief of his father and wife's death that he hated, and the Ruby Peel Park that he didn't want to stay at first. All the stories, one after another, from little Eddie to old Eddie, are connected together and become Eddie's life.
In fact, all life is related. Each of us is a link in the story of life, and no one can live without anyone. Others influence your story, and your story is also part of others' story. Your life sustains a person's death, and your death is doomed to a person's life. Everyone is interrelated.
As Ruby said at the end of the film: The world is full of stories, but these stories are all the same. The meaning of heaven is to let you know the essence of life, learn to love, learn to tolerate and learn to be happy. Remember Eddie said that God seems to have forgotten him.
After his death, he finally understood the whole story and suddenly realized that the so-called place he should go was Ruby Peel Park. In heaven, Eddie not only understood the essence of life, but also learned to accept reality, forgive, love, give, live and die.
As the story says, maybe this is what God means, to let you go back to your life and let you know yourself.
Five people meet in heaven is a novel published by American writer mitch albom in 2003. In 2004, ABC produced a TV movie with the same name. In 2005, this book was selected as ten good books of Radio Television Hong Kong.

When the illusion of literary imagination reunited with Eddie after his death, Eddie looked back on his life and suddenly realized that love was like salt, which made a dull life taste.
