A REFERENCE LETTER FOR A FRIEND |
| CLICK HERE FOR A PRINTER FRIENDLY PAGE |
| As I pondered the death of a close friend, I thought, what if a reference letter could improve his chances of getting into heaven? I thought of what I would say If my friend needed a personal reference to enter Heaven. What could anyone say to God or Heaven's Human Resource Director , to persuade him to allow their friend into Heaven? He was a nice guy, or he was a great guy, who had a few problems in his life but, he doesn't deserve to go to Hell. It's possible that whoever is reviewing my friend's resume of life , might know him better than I do. There might be something I never knew about him; that might be in his personel file. So rather than say something too overly enthusiastic about him , maybe a little caution would be more appropriate. I expect to be applying for the same position one day. My reference for my friend would still be enthusiastic, much in the same way our friendship was: I liked him. I enjoyed his friendship. He was a good drinking buddy. We could talk about many subjects and we could argue with one another; without getting too angry. I could call him an idiot and he could call me an idiot, and neither of us would take offense at it. We were well aware of the possibility that we were both idiots. My friend had a great sense of humor. He often told me that he did. I felt that he was truthful in that statement; since he laughed at most of my jokes. I also laughed at most of his jokes. He was efficient at some things and inept at others. He could be disagreeable at times and aggrevate a saint. He was a good friend as far as friends are good. He had several hobbies different than my own. His taste in wines and foods were different than my own, but when we ate together we seldom complained about the meal. My other friends seemed to get along with him; as his other friends seemed to get along with me. We had different political and religious views, but it made for good arguments, and a reason for each of us to have another beer. Now that he is dead, I can't talk to him anymore, and I miss that. Now that he's dead I can only wish him the best, and thank him for his friendship. Now that he's dead I wish I had said thanks to him more often. I wish I hadn't taken his friendship for granted. I hope he knew that he was a good friend to me, and I hope he knew that I was a good friend to him. I hope this reference letter helps get my friend into Heaven ; because if he can't make it in, I haven't got much of a chance either. Sincerely, L.A. STEEL |
