There was a man who worked for the Post Office whose job was to process
mail with inadequate addresses. One day, a letter came addressed to
"God" with no other address. He thought he should open it to see what
it was about.

The letter read:

"Dear God,

I am an 83-year-old widow, living on a very small pension. Yesterday
someone stole my purse.
It had $100 in it, which was all the money I had until my next pension
check.
Next Sunday is Christmas, and I had invited two of my friends over for
dinner. Without that money, I have nothing to buy food with. I have no
family to turn to, and you are my only hope. Can you please help me?

Sincerely,
Edna"

The postal worker was touched. He showed the letter to all the other
workers. Each one dug into his or her wallet and came up with a few
dollars. By the time he made the rounds, he had collected $96, which
they put into an envelope and sent to the woman. The rest of the day,
all the workers felt a warm glow thinking of Edna and the dinner she
would be able to share with her friends.

Christmas came and went. A few days later, another letter came from the
same old lady to "God". All the workers gathered around while the
letter was opened. It read:

"Dear God,

How can I ever thank you enough for what you did for me? Because of your
gift of love, I was able to fix a glorious dinner for my friends. We had
a very nice day and I told my friends of your wonderful gift.
By the way, there were $4 missing. I think it must have been those
ba****ds at the Post Office.

Sincerely yours,
Edna"
