Any idea you had a minute ago
Any idea you had a minute ago is a preconceived thought. Preconceived thoughts weigh you down. They are hurdles you have to jump over. What do YOU think? You don’t know what you think because your mind has been crowded with thoughts that came from somewhere else.
Rubble underfoot today in the mountains,
sticks and stalks, grasses, fir needles.
Knowing what they are,
they are as if painted or taken from a textbook;
unknowing, glowing and nameless aliveness.
This is an idea of a minute ago,
but now, What do YOU think?
I think of Your famous trashcan for thoughts,
knowing full well it is still not my own thought
but a hurdle to jump over.
My own thought cannot be known to this one who thinks.
My own thought must be Yours or that of the fir needles.

I would like to thank Gloria and Anita Manasse for the oportunity to translate these letters into Spanish. Having done that for some time, I feel as if the essence of them has sunk deeply into my very being. Heaven Letters represent a wonderful way to connect with the source of it all. God - Love. This letters change the way we have been "trained" to perceive God, ourselves, and the world around us. We should take these letters and read them/hand them out to people who are feeling poorly, wherever they are. The comments of other readers have been most inspiring and touching.
