Excerpt

GETTING UP EARLY IN the morning was one of my passions. Like a spring-loaded jumping board, I woke up at 5am. Linda, looking peaceful as ever, still laid there sleeping. With love and devotion in my heart, I left her note while eating a bowl of my favourite cereal. Filled with a tremendous amount of energy, I burst out the door, got in the car and sped off. While driving into town something caught my eye at the side of the road. Stopping the car, filled with curiosity, I pulled over and stopped. Lying on the ground, I found an old helmet that belonged to a foot soldier. What did this mean? Why was it lying here for me to find? Weirdly, everything around me began to spin.

Before I knew it everything stopped, but I was in a different location. Where was I? What brought me here? Ironically, I was standing right in front of a huge wall with thousands of names engraved on it. It was all of the Vietnam veterans who died while in action. I felt a big lump forming in my throat. Suddenly, the wall seemed to be clear in appearance. A soldier who appeared to be a mirror image to my reflection appeared on the other side of it. In amazement, I put my hand to the wall. The soldier in the reflection put his hand out to me. With tears in his eyes, we stared at each other for the space of ten seconds. His lips kept saying the following words:

“Please help me and release me from this world.”

I looked very deeply into the man's eyes and could see much sorrow in his eyes. Using the situation to my advantage, I quickly looked at the soldier's nametag. His name would probably be permanently engraved in the windows of my mind. Then the soldier spoke,

“My name is Private Decker; I have been assigned to Bravo Company.”

In a blink of an eye, I was back at my car and the vision ended. What does this mean to me? Does this helmet belong to him? Questions filled my mind as I took this helmet and got in the car and drove to my office with a feeling of bewilderment. While opening the door to my office, Hank Olson patted me on the back.
