Album

"Look Father, they're taking pictures of me."

"All day, they take pictures of you, son. Mostly, you don't notice this. But they're there, photographing your every move."

"Why do they need so many pictures? What will they do with them?"

"These pictures make up the album of your life. They are your true personality, the real you -- your reward in the world to come, your wholeness for eternity. This is the "you" you take with you when you exit your body and go home."

"Can I see this album, Father?"

"You can see a little of it, son -- but not very clearly. It's too dark in this world to enjoy it properly. You can get a vague idea of what's in that album -- and whatever you see, you can use. But its true beauty, you will only grasp later, when your vision clears.
