Letters to Heaven

 

Letters to Heaven

A post box has been installed at our local crematorium. Its purpose is to send letters to Heaven.

The idea was inspired by a nine-year-old girl who wanted to write to her grandparents after they had died.

Other councils which have adopted this idea collect the letters, turn them to pulp and mix them with wild flower seeds. The resulting mixture is then planted in the cemetery.

I have mixed feelings about this. What do you think?
