BIG BLUE PLANET, December 2012
Engrossed in my sci-fi novel, I chuckled at the hysteria surrounding the planet’s supposed demise. Tex’s agitation interrupted my thoughts, prompting me to take him outside. Amidst the fearful whispers the ones at home, I dismissed the notion of Earth’s end. Yet, as Tex hesitated on the sidewalk, fixated on something unseen, a blinding light approached. From that moment, everything became a blur. Now, stranded in an unfamiliar realm, devoid of my senses and surrounded by swirling fluids, questions flood my mind. Am I dreaming? Was I in the middle of the road? Have I passed into the afterlife? Where is Tex? What happened to our big blue planet? Was that light coming from an Alien spaceship? The uncertainty gnaws at me, begging for answers.
Please help.
