After 2001: Our Neotech World

Next Page | Contents | Previous Page


The sunrise caught the old man still paralyzed in his memories. He finally stood up to leave. He was weary. His heart ached as he recalled that the last time he stood up from this spot, he was overflowing with energy and happiness as he lifted her and turned her around...and that the last time he stood here was a few years ago when he told her how much he loved her. He looked at the cove in the morning light. He looked for a long time. He looked at the pines, at the land where they celebrated, at the lake, the sky...and then he looked at the rock and listened as the water cradled it. Tears fell from his eyes. It was hard to turn away. He knew he would never again see this place that had meant so much to his life. ...He was saying good-bye, forever.

The old man tried to go on with his goals. But he and his wife had always worked together. Going back to his desk, pulling out work that she had worked on with him, reaching for goals that she had reached for with him...caused deep pain. Working toward those goals without her now tore his heart. They both loved their work and their goals. But now the work and those goals devastated him with hurt. He kept remembering her and how she had loved their goals. When he walked into his home office, he became filled with the pain of losing her. He could not work without her presence. He spent all day working on something that before, with her, took him less than an hour. His mind slipped back into memories of her all day long. He emotionally could not achieve their goals without her. For, every forward movement toward those goals made the loss of her more painful.

He struggled forward for two more painful years. He accomplished little, then died. ...The water still cradles the rock in the cove. The sun sets over the lake and the moon shines between the pine trees. But he will never see that again.

Looking back at the 20th century, it seemed so sad and strange that people lived only into their 70s and 80s. Under the old code, we lived sad, short lives. In tomorrow's Neotech Era, we lived well into our hundreds, eventually into our mid-100s and beyond.

Today, you live for a brief moment in time, then are gone, vanished from eternity, forever. Everything, all the wonderful values of life and heartwarming feelings vanish with death. That inherent sadness of life amplifies the moral purpose of living: to achieve happiness. During your brief moment alive in all eternity, you must experience intense happiness and as much as you possibly can. You must accomplish this to get everything you can out of your one shining moment of life.

Your Happiness Tomorrow

My Third Vision certainly made me feel my mortality. Looking back at the 20th century, our few decades on Earth offered us every feeling of life we would ever know in all eternity. In all the infinity before we were born and in all the infinity after we die, our brief, little flicker of time here on Earth was our one special moment to enjoy life.

In the 20th century, our lives were so short; we were here for a moment and then were gone forever. The Third Vision turned my thoughts to my four-year-old daughter and my baby boy and their one special moment in time. I saw an image of them all grown up. Oh, how I wanted only good to happen to them, for this was their one special moment in all eternity.

Seeing into the future during this Third Vision was painful at the beginning, for it showed me how quickly our loved ones got old. I saw the "sad someday" when they each died. Their every precious feeling in life ended on their last day, ended forever. All senses of warmth in their lives came to an end; forever and ever. Gone not for a few weeks. Gone forever. Never to occur again. ...In this Vision, I came face to face with the fact that everything special in life is lost to death.

During the Third Vision, at times so sad and somber, I realized that only by feeling the sadness of life could we discover the rightness of happiness...of super happiness. Now I knew why the spirit showing me the Third Vision was putting me through these saddest of feelings.
