I was sucked in to Eddie's life. I put my self in his shoes and I felt shame and disappointment. I also felt the love he had for his wife and it was heartbreaking for me when she died. The people in heaven that he meets helped me to see where the meaning in his life was. When he finally meets the fifth person I realized how beautiful he was and I felt an amazing sense of relief. Eddie's life had meaning and value and he was finally able to see it. What a beautiful beautiful story.
