Experience From Above

Location: Key West, FL 1950's

  This is not a ghost story, but an experience from above. I was about 10 years old playing in the park across from our home. I went to the swing, siblings near by. I was swinging high, when on one of my upward swings, I looked to the sky. There in full living color one one of the clouds was this old man with a long white beard, long white robe, with pen in hand, sitting at a golden desk. He was staring down at me, with a huge book like he was getting ready to write in the book while looking at me. It was a beautiful, peaceful apparition. It seemed like time stood still in that moment while I swung upward. That image has stayed with me all my life and I'm 74 years old. Could it be that he was going to write my name in the book of life?
