Immediately there was complete darkness,a sound not unlike music,then absolute silence. I was no longer afraid,just extremely curious. After what seemed like an eternity, but in reality couldn't have been more than a few seconds, we emerged into another brilliantly lit room similar to the one we'd just left.I turned to Gideon and said, "We don't seem to have gone anywhere." Smiling, he replied,"We're light years away from where we started."
A delegation awaited us a group of friendly people who came forward and surrounded us. Searching the faces around us, I was taken by surprise to find my father, looking exactly as I knew him back on earth. He looked straight into my eyes; I thought for sure I was dreaming. I became overwhelmed by emotions as I rushed up and threw my arms around him. I had missed him so much.
"No, you're not dreaming, son," he said to me.
"You're alive, Dad?" I said,more as a statement than a question.
"As alive, as I ever was or will be," he replied. He seemed to be happy and at peace. The crowd parted as we walked across the room toward a large door. As we approached, the door opened automatically and we proceeded into a scene of indescribable beauty. Although we'd left the transfer point at night,it was now full daylight. Perhaps, it's less confusing not to analyze the mysteries of time and space.
Marla said,"We'll be back with you shortly, John," and she and Gideon vanished, leaving me alone with my Dad. I looked at the man who had raised me and taught me so much about life. Was it the light again or did he seem to be surrounded by a faint, silvery aura?
"Sit down, son," he said as he pointed toward a bench beneath a tree, "Tell me how you've been."
"Well, to say the least, I've been having a real rough time, Dad. I don't know how, but I'm sure things will work out eventually. What's this place and what are you doing here?" Somehow, I felt that he already knew how I was doing.
"This is a reception center for visitors from various parts of the universe. I'll be here for a while. I chose this assignment because of the opportunities for growth and learning, but I have to admit it's also fun."
