This story is about you and me and the tension between now and the future. Shall I deny myself at present to gain eternity in the future, or do I live this moment to the fullest? Shall I release the bird in hand for a future promise? Am I not free to live by my own rules? These are universal issues that each of us wrestles with in different ways.

In this story, Fred is a self-made man wrestling with the everyday issues of living. He has his own code of what a decent life should look like. He, however, has no control over the circumstances of his life. Find out what happens when the familiar is intercepted by a greater reality.

The lifelong question is, when we die do we cease to be cognitive or is our next experience a continuum of our present cognition? If, in our next experience, the things that are said and done now are remembered do they have consequences?

Fred will discover answers to these questions. This story is his story. Read and enjoy!
