The Portal

This is the story of Robert Pearson’s perilous encounters with a time portal. Robert begins his journeys as a twelve-year-old boy in 1955. During a blizzard, he discovers the portal as a means of escape. The catch is that while the portal saves Robert’s life in different time periods, it also always places him in jeopardy in another.

Whenever Robert enters a new time period, it feels as though he’s lived there all his life; in most of them, he holds a position of authority. It seems that every place the portal transports Robert to is a potential trap. At times, Robert communicates with the portal, which is some kind of entity composed of both energy and matter, fluttering in and out of reality. While the portal never forces Robert to enter, it always leaves him with the same choice: flee or die.

In the hospital, Robert tells everyone about his experiences, but no one believes him. However, the portal has dealt Robert an “Ace” that he doesn’t yet realize he holds.

Sermons in Dust

At some point, I realized what most of us seek in life is false, including what a man makes a priority. The things that he pursues often lead to nothing more than emptiness in his heart. Constantly, his actions swing him back and forth between right and wrong. Happiness often flees from him, and peace is only a daydream. It all comes back again in a cycle that never ends. A man will often blame the world for his problems, but he refuses to look inside himself, though deep down he knows that he is the cause of much of his tragedy. The world may not be to blame. The world is only what it is.

I had God, but a church was something that I knew little of, often only driving past a vacant building on a day it was not in session. But I do respect it. My faith was found in the forests and streams that I spent most of my Sundays in, drawing inspiration from my experiences there. But where I truly realized the power of God’s wisdom was in the fire itself, where selfishness, lies, and the deceit that we all encounter pervade, almost to the point where it chokes the very breath out of us. Friends may really be enemies, as our trust is lost in those who once held all of it. I knew I had to find trust in something else: a power that was above man’s pettiness, something that could transcend our arrogance and pride.

My life is half over, but I may have finally figured out how to live it, as I tried to write these words.
