A Letter to God
Why does the postmaster send money to Lencho? Why does he sign the letter ‘God’?
The postmaster sends the money to Lencho to help him and keep his faith God alive. He was impressed by Lencho's faith in God. He wished that he could also have the same faith in God. So, he asked the other employees to contribute some money and he himself gave a part of his salary. After he collects all the contribution, he puts that into an envelope and posts it to Lencho's address. He signs the letter as God because he doesn't want to shake lencho's faith in God.
