I walked through the door and saw a man at a distance. He was facing me with his arm outstretched as if offering me something. I could not tell you a single detail about the room except for what I felt filling the entire place: Power.
I started to walk forward and noticed a great many spectators around. All of them were far away and even though I could see nothing in their body language or expressionless faces I felt anger and hatred in all of the eyes; eyes that were completely focused on me.
As I came closer to the man I noticed intense flames resting in his outstretched hand. I hoped this wasnt what he was trying to offer me. I couldnt feel any heat coming from it but I began to realize that the power I felt all around me was coming from this burning globe and I was afraid of it. The authority and absoluteness of the thing turned my stomach and made my knees weak.
With my approach I kept my eyes locked on that flame. It felt as if this was the reason I was here.When I became close enough to reach out and touch it I asked "Why the flame?"
His voice answered me saying "This flame is my Will. I have made a decision."
"What decision?" I asked
"I have decided to create a future for you and a destiny. I have planned everything. It sits as a treasure in the midst of this flame. No one is able to change it or destroy it. Not your enemies or your friends. Neither can your parents or those who rule over you. Not even you can change what I have built and planned for you. You have only a choice."
I was afraid to ask but I knew it was expected..."What are my choices?"
"First, you may refuse. However this would grieve me to no end. I have labored over this and created something no one else can give you. It was made for you and with you in mind. It will fulfill every desire that resides in your heart. If you refuse than you may do as you wish with what I have already given you. It will be up to you and the responsibility of the end results will sit on your own shoulders."
I nervously licked my lips and with a shaky voice asked "And the second option?"
"The second option is that you can accept. This is not as easy as it sounds for you will have to make this choice more than once. In fact, you will be given this option every single day. It will require that you give away your selfishness and desires and whole heartedly be consumed by this flame."
"Will it hurt?" I asked
His voice responded with a hint of sadness "Dying is never easy boy."
