Long ago there was a tiny dot of sand, virtually invisible,
that was presented to you as a gift. Your intuition led you to
accept it and to carefully examine it. And lo, after becoming
extraordinarily teeny yourself, you found an entrance into
this little treasure. So inside you went and before long,
you found a shiny, gold key that had been left upon a
rounded stone, as if especially for you.

With key in hand you arrived at a massive gate.
Just above it there was a handwritten plaque:
'Welcome to the Jungles of Time and Space, where
nothing is as it seems, yet all things are possible.
Should you ever feel lost or weary, Forget not from
where you have come, and follow the signs...'

Peering between the wrought iron bars, you could see
the entire Milky Way Galaxy and a hundred billion
galaxies beyond it. Your thoughts raced, your imagination
ran wild, and as you raised your key to the lock, slowly
slipping it in, and gently turning... there was a sudden
flash of light and burst of sound. Whereupon, seemingly
light-years later but, in fact, no longer than an instant,
you found yourself in the most beautiful human form,
living on the most beautiful little planet, having a
wonderful life, a wrinkle of curiosity on your brow, reading
this very Note, right here and now.
Talk about a sign...
