Five people I want to meet in Heaven

First i saw the book "The Five people you meet in Heaven" by Mitch Albom in 2006 at a book Store in St.Mary's Church in Secunderabad. From that time onwards whenever i go to book shop i used to go through that book but hesitated to buy.Atlast i bought that book 3 weeks before and started reading.while i was reading i started to think who are the five person i want to meet if i die now.Here is the five people i want to meet in heaven.

1.Mother Teresa:

From my childhood i wanted to meet her.But unfortunately before i meet her she died.I dont know why i started liking her, may be because my uncle used to tell lot of things about her.I always consider her as my second mother.My interest in Mother Teresa growed when my uncle met family her at Calcutta.They told so many stories about the Missionaries of Charities which made me to read the biography of Mother Teresa.If i meet her i will ask "what made you do come to India and work among poor?".

2.Bagat Singh :

I never read his biography or any book about him but i heard lot of things about him in debates.I love his courage.He accepted the death penalty with a smile.I want to read his biography soon.I will ask him " Do you think Indian youth are Courageous today?"

3.Pope John Paul-II:

As i considered Mother Teresa as my second mother, i considered Pope John Paul-II as my scond father.He was the epitome of Compassion .I liked the way he toppled the communism in Poland.I started supporting Prolife after Pope John Paul-II.I think he is one of the most important personality of this centuary.I will ask him "Expalin Church ethics and Science".

4.Elvis Presley :

King of Rock 'n' Roll.I dont know anything about Elvis till last year.I went to a book expo 2 or 3 months before where i randomly chose the book " Last Train to Memphesis" which is a biography of Elvis Presley.While reading that book i bought 2 cds of his selective songs, i was exciting to listen to his voice,I started to listen almost daily even today.His voice is something Unique and something different.I really enjoying his songs now even though its 40+ years old.I will ask him " Do you think your voice is Unique ,if its ,in what way?".

5.Che Guevara:

Over the years i knew him only as friend of Fidel Castro only after reading a article about him in a magazine i learnt his heroics.I just want to meet him and ask him his "Motorcycle Diaries" experience.

The list may change when i read more about other personalities.
