    About this ebook

    Have you ever pondered the meaning of life or how everything came to be including consciousness, or if you prefer, God? Can you describe what it looked like before anything, including God, existed? I don't know why or how I saw the birth of consciousness, but I did. My book is part memoir, part position, and part science. I am not religious and this is not a religious book. That being said, I do believe in God and I now have a better understanding of what God truly is and what you and I really are. Not only do I share this information,i also share the knowledge of just how powerful you and I, individually and collectively, are within this physical realm. Using all this information and combining it with science,i also explain the possibility of receiving help from a different realm. My book is separated into three parts. Part one is where I share with you a few personal experiences that taught me very early in life that things are not as i was being taught. Part two is a blend of both science and what I was shown as the beginning. This blend is then used to give you a better understanding of the physical world in which you and I live, as well as all other realms from which help can originate. Part three deals with how to empower yourself to change that what you wish to change. Here again I use a few stories, some personal some not, along with a bit of philosophy to teach you about perception. This part also has a warning. I included this warning so you will understand why this book was written in the first place....... To give you hope.

      Introduction

      Mainstream science tells us that our incredibly vast universe was created by the explosion of a quark. That is their starting point. But where did this quark thing come from? Religion tells us that this universe was created by God. If that is so, then who created the creator? It seems to be quite a mystery.

      When I first decided to write this book, all I really wanted to do was share something quite profound. Close your eyes and picture in your mind, if you can, what it looked like before the beginning. Before consciousness, before the universe, before that which we call God. What do you see? How long did it take to visualize whatever picture was created in your mind?

      For me, the picture is quite clear and instant. I do not have to use my imagination or rely on what someone else said or described. I have actually seen the beginning. This is what I want to share.

      If you accept this beginning I describe, then who we really are comes into focus. More to the point, what we truly are transcends birth and death and gives rise to the possibility of interference in our lives as well as the ability to change our lives individually and collectively using only thought, focus, intensity and belief.

      That is profound and life altering. But this profound and life altering stuff only happens if you believe me. Part I is a collection of dreams, visions, and information I've had and learned over my lifetime, which I share in an attempt to convince you that what I saw is real and completely true. Please keep in mind, I'm not a writer. I share these dreams and or visions with you to both convince you and entertain you. Keep in mind, these dreams or visions do not happen often, and I understand everyone has dreams. I am not referring to the typical crazy dreams people have. The dreams I get always have a basic message. I also remember them my entire life. When I refer to a vision, it's the same as a dream, with the difference being I have them when I'm awake. One was so powerful it knocked me off my feet!

      Part II is an attempt to describe what happened after the birth of consciousness and before the creation of this three dimensional universe in which we find ourselves. (I took a lot of aspirin writing this part, since it racked my brain so much. Actually, after rereading this part, I'm only 50% sure it was aspirin. But I digress…) I took into account all my experiences and knowledge about life, the paranormal, and stories told to me by individuals during the course of my life. Keeping in mind that I haven't figured anything out my entire life, Part II is only one possibility and is not etched in stone. I can only attest to the beginning.

      Part III was meant to be an instruction manual of sorts, but it turned out to be nothing like an instruction manual because I don't have one. I don't believe there is any particular way of doing anything. Nor is it really complicated. I wrote this part in hope you, the reader, can gain an insight into who I am and how I think. If you can do that, then maybe, just maybe, you can accept Part I as factual truth. Once the true beginning can be established, an understanding of what we really are starts to emerge. And, with that understanding, comes knowledge that all things are possible. Most important to me personally, this book is for my children and their families, for whom I have great love.

      Part I: The Pieces

      The Carport

      My life started in a small rural town called Sanger, with a population of eighteen thousand. It was nothing really special. Like all small towns, everyone knew everyone. Our house was very basic: a perfect rectangle consisting of a living room, kitchen, and one bathroom separating two bedrooms. I, along with two older brothers shared one bedroom. I must admit it was not pleasant with three boys sharing one room. The entire house wasn't more than nine hundred square feet.

      There was a driveway in the front that formed a half circle. On the right side of this tiny house was another driveway heading straight. Together they formed a backward h. It was on this straight part that my father, two uncles, and I built a flat top carport. Admittedly they did most of the work, since I was only about four years old then. On the north end of the carport, a small storage room that was maybe 12 feet by 8 feet was built. My father was an electrical contractor, and it was here that he kept wiring, conduit, fittings, and the like. However, there was just enough room to squeeze in an Army cot. This became my very own bedroom. Granted, it was not a typical bedroom, but I no longer had two brothers in
