Oh, it does my heart and mind good to hear someone else voice the questions I have about this worldly condition, operation, and past. I enjoyed reading your work. Best wishes.

Thank you very much.
Comment from LisaMay
Your picture choice is most appropriate to the questions you ask, and the permeating sorrow of so much pain, unfairness and incomprehension in the world - from specific people and situations to whole countries.
I send you a caring hug for the people in your life who are suffering.
Your closing line sounded rather odd to me:
'Pray give serious consideration to my request.'
You're asking God to pray? Who to?
Correction:
My aunt aunt died of cancer, (aunt is repeated)

Thank you very much. "Pray' is an old English form .It means 'I pray to you...'
Comment from Elizabeth Emerald
Compelling plea to an incomprehensible "intelligent" being called God and various permutations thereof. Powerful and provocative piece--amongst the finest in this contest.

Comment from karenina
A letter from your heart... We humans of free will make quite a mess of things, don't we? I relate to your questions... Particularly "that we address You differently...."
I wish all death was death with dignity.
I pray eternal life will make up for what happens here!

Thank you very much for this very thoughtful remarks. Our former prime Minister Nehru wrote in his book'Glimpses of World History", 'more blood has been shed in the name of God than in any other name'.
This was in early 1900s .It is sad that even now it continues to be true.

It is tragic.
We never learn!
Comment from Carol Hillebrenner
This is an excellent plea to God for so many hungry people, war-torn people, damaged Earth, and those dying in long agony. My mother spent seven years in a nursing home. After the first year she knew no one, after the second she could not speak, by the fourth year she was bed-ridden and slowly retreated into someone who looked like a newborn baby in agony. It should be easier to go on to heaven. I understand your sorrow.

Thank you very much for the understanding review. It is sad to see people suffering from age related problems.
Comment from LJbutterfly
You've asked the questions that many of us have asked. Why God, why? If we knew all the answers, we would be God, and each of us would solve the world's problems in a different way. We would probably fight. Oh. That's where we are now. Fighting. In your letter, you speak our sad truth. We as humans should be able to exit in dignity. Best wishes in the contest.

Comment from Alcreator Litt Dear
You have truly addressed God, for the first time you address God in writing, you have enough experience of talking with God while doing other things, anyway, you are now worried about the Russian war on Ukraine and other problems with other countries, you simply ask God what God is doing about the international problems, so you pray to God for doing something to ensure peace across the world, though you fear but pray to God for many solutions; well said, well done, post god speed more, share post not 4 self-joy-pride but 4 God and readers worldwide Alcreator Litt Dear (DR)
