It's a sick world down there, and it keeps getting darker and more wicked every year! Friends become enemies. Families are ruined. Marriages collapse. Pride, anger, bitterness, and jealousy dwell in human hearts like a perpetual disease. People now live in fear, ready to attack out of defense or pounce on the weak, and are able to stomp on anyone who gets in their way! And that's how humans are taught, conditioned to think about only one thing: themselves! And it certainly takes some time to transform new arrivals into proper citizens of heaven. Before they can enjoy all that paradise has to offer, they need to learn how to appreciate relationships again, to forgive, to treat others with respect, and be healed from the past. And that's where I come in. Alfred Deston. Case worker #296752. I'm one of the managers who work in heaven, and I definitely have my work cut out for me!
