Download Postcards from Heaven: Messages of Love from the Other Side AudioBook Free
"Nearly all of us either have had or have heard of an experience when a heart and soul already departed reaches back to us who've been left out.... Sometimes, it's only a whisper, a familiar smell in the air, or maybe the sensation of existence as vivid as when the cherished one was still alive. These occasions are just that...moments, a glimpse behind the veil; not really a notice from heaven, but a postcard." (Dan Gordon, Postcards from Heaven)
A postcard from heaven is not really a revelation from on high -- alternatively, it's "a whisper, a familiar smell in the air, or maybe the sensation of existence" of someone who's passed away. It is just enough of a message to imply what we call life is not ended by what we call death.
Dan Gordon has been receiving these postcards all his life -- from his father, his older brother, and his child Zaki, who was simply killed in a vehicle accident when he was only twenty-two. Postcards from Heaven is the stunning, inspirational memoir of four generations of a remarkable family and the way they remain interconnected, an integral part of one another's reviews, even after transferring to the other area. Here is the span of his father's extended life, moving and funny, from the Russian Revolution to his improbable Depression-era courtship of a female called Goddess -- Gordon's mom -- to his religious later years in Israel; his incorrigible aged brother's mischievous magic, able to find laughter even in cancer tumor treatment; and his brilliant son, an all natural storyteller who appeared destined to follow his father into the movie business. These are the stories of their lives on earth as well as after death.
Full of laughter, compassion, and love, Postcards from Heaven comforts and assures us that those we cherished can reach back to those of us still on earth -- and, only if we have been attentive enough to pay attention, we can notice them say,
It's really beautiful.
Much love, till we meet again.
