A VIEW OF YOKOHAMA FROM A BRIDGE LONG GONE

There is an image in my mind much like the one in the slide of a bygone Yokohama.

It will remain long after I am gone. Somewhere in another frame of time this scene will survive and the bridge upon where I stood will be rebuilt with those moments in mind.

If Heaven does exist, and I see no reason why it shouldn't, or couldn't, we will all see some of our favorite places there, in a never-ending light, sunlight or moonlight, our choice to make, at some other time, but moreover, the reasons why it was so special will not be missed in such a future scene, the smiles exchanged will seal the scene as a moment of reality saved and given back, our reward for having survived the trials and temptations of a time away from eternity, a time our earthly residence will have removed all memory of the time we spent before volunteering for a tour as earthly beings on a planet we will always remember as our home, dear Earth.

Does it not make sense, then, that we should have some special spots to recall, like photographs in earthly albums shared while we were here. These scenes, like the slide of another time, another place, the Yokohama Waterfront, will be forever on display somewhere in another planet for the rest of all eternity.
And there is so much more we will not learn until that time, I believe.

There's no sense in thinking all of this was simply a big mistake. By Robert L. Huffstutter
