Reprinted by permission. All rights reserved."The difference from a person and an angel is easy. Most of an angel is onthe inside and most of a person is on the outside."These are the words of six-year-old Anna, sometimes called Mouse, Hum, or Joy. At five years old, Anna knew absolutely the purpose of being, knew the meaning of love, andwas a personal friend and helper of Mister God. At six, Anna was a theologian, mathematician, philosopher, poet, and gardener. If you asked her a question you would always get an answer--in due course. On some occasions the answer would be delayed for weeks or months; but eventually, in her own good time, the answer would come: direct, simple, and much to the point.She never made eight years; she died by an accident. She died with a grin on her beautiful face. She died saying, "I bet Mister God lets me get into heaven for this." And I bet he did too.I knew Anna for just about three and a half years. Some people lay claimto fame by being the first person to sail around the world alone, or tostand on the moon, or by some other act of bravery. All the world hasheard of such people. Not many people have heard of me, but I, too, have a claimto fame; for I knew Anna. To me this was the high peak of adventure. Thiswas no casual knowing; it required total application. For I knew her onher own terms, the way she demanded to be known: from the inside first."Most of an angel is in the inside," and this is the way I learned to knowher--my first angel. Since then I have learned to know two other angels,but that's another story.My name is Fynn. Well that's not quite true; my real name doesn't matterall. Seller Inventory # BKZN9780345441553
