The Two Doors

The Two Doors
I was asked: what was it like? I said there were two doors. I entered through one and left through the other. Retrospectively it was like a film using time-lapse photography compressing it to a few minutes. Still it gave me a bird’s eye view and I could watch myself from outside without being involved. This made me take a more objective view than before. But even before I came to the two doors everything I had lived appeared to me like a dream or phantoms of my past. Nothing was left apart from a short film. The interesting thing about it is: time stopped playing a role and I was now in control. I could lie back and play the film back again and again as if it was recorded on a tape.

However and to my horror the two doors revealed the painful truth. Everything I had been told before turned out now a total lie. This was supposed to make me angry but instead I started laughing or even pitying those who still take it for granted. You know what I mean, a few of those holy messengers turned up out of the blue and started bullying, cheating, preaching fasting and praying and of course telling lies. It is as simple as that: you can always claim and promise to move heaven and earth. After all, people are gullible and easy to manipulate. You can advertise anything you like even without going to great pains as long as you sell hopes.
