To
From
and Around the
.
"I saw behind me those who had gone, and before me, those who are to
come. I looked
back and saw my father, and his father, and all our
fathers, and in front,
to see my son, and his son, and the sons upon sons
beyond. And
their eyes were my eyes.
As I felt, so they
had felt, and were to feel, as then, so now, as
tomorrow and
forever.
Then I was not afraid, for I was in a long line
that had no beginning,
and no end. And the hand of his father grasped my
father's hand, and
his hand was in mine, and my unborn son took my right
hand, and all, up
and down the line that stretched from Time That Was, to
Time That Is, and
Is Not Yet, raised their hands to show the link, and we
found that we were
one, born of Woman, Son of Man, made in His Image,
fashioned in the Womb
by the Will of God, the Eternal Father."
