The Face of OK (Part 1)

Welcome Back

"Welcome back, You are OK now"

This was the very first thing that I have been told upon my arrival.

No luggage and no concerns at the gate. What is left behind may feel sorry, but to everything there is an ending, and that's the name of the game.

I was dead yet another time and some Godly Thing awaits for a talk.

It is not my first time doing this but with every trip I made on the Earth, I would forget all about this place and the secrets of the Godly Thing.

Yet this time however was a little different. I was not sad, I was not scared but instead of that I was aware.

As I walked in the long hall of Silence, I was not there on my own.

As usual the Gate Keeper was sweeping just behind me to ensure that no one else will ever have to walk my steps and then collect the payment for my safe passage.

This is the place where it all began but here I am now heading to the opposite direction.

At the end of the hall, the Godly Thing awaits for the big talk.

I had recognized it from all the way there, it was the face of Love, a face of mother. Such a warm welcome in the Great After.

Some candles were lit for me and I was offered a seat as this face of God gently kept smiling at me.

- Welcome back, You are OK now.

The voice was very soft like a goodnight kiss. I did feel a little sleepy but I replied,

- This is what the keeper had just said to me.

- The Gate Keeper is the silent one. I am the Voice you hear in the End.

- Why do You have different voices?

I asked the Godly Thing.

- There are way more things to be said than a single voice can ever express. So to find the Godly Thing in every voice that is the mark of Wisdom at its best.

- Well back on Earth, the wise usually gets stabbed in the back. It is quite depressing.

- It is the burden of the wise to know torture at some point on their path. The wisdom they provide is to serve the future while the feeling of depression comes from attending the past.

- So I can say that the other side of depression is the wisdom that it brings?

- Yes but that is, if you can make it through.

A tough challenge that is, depression is not a joke indeed. It drags one to the very edge, if they call it the silent killer it is for valid reasons.

There are many who had fallen deep into this abyss and they never came back. The heart is the first to die, followed by the mind till the body collapse. Yes, I have been down this very road.

People on earth say suicide is not the answer, but they also say things like toughen up be a soldier. Little do they know about the ways of the gentle kind.

- Were You mad at me when I killed myself?

I just had to ask this question to the Godly Thing.

- Here You wondering if suicide is an insult to I, the Face of All. Well I figure that the best way to answer this, will be to allow you to experience things from my perspective.

Suddenly I felt the urge to fall asleep growing even stronger in me, I could no longer resist it so I let it all go.

I knew that I was OK so I let myself go into this unknown, as I was being taken on another trip.
