Walking from a distance, an old man see's a light on the highest rock on the highest mountain. He walks up the rocky snowy mountain to see the light that was in the distance is beginning to fade. He rushes to it before it fades away. He finally reaches the rock and notices a bright object that he can not see. He goes closer to investigate. He reaches in the little hole where this bright object is located to see if it's hot. It's as cold as ice. He wraps it in cloth and picks it up and runs down the mountain. The ground begins to crumble behind him. He runs faster and faster until he reaches the bottom of the mountain. The bright object that he can not see is still in hand so he continues to go back to his village. He goes in the darkest room of the darkest village to read the bright object he picked up from the highest rock on the highest mountain. The object is too bright still. He asked a fellow elder how he can read this. The elder told him to go in the lowest village in the lowest valley for an answer. The old man follows the directions and reaches the valley within days. He meets with another elder. The old man tells the elder that he's from the darkest room from the darkest valley and that he picked up an object from the highest rock on the highest mountain and wanted to know what the explanation of this object. The elder tells him to follow the longest steepest trail down to the foggy valley and drop it in the water to uncover the truth of the object. The old man follows the instructions and goes to foggy valley. Once there, the old man notices 3 bridges down to the bottom of the foggy valley. He must decide which bridge he should take but he can't tell which one is the right one. He see's an elder and asks for directions. He tells the elder that he is from the darkest valley and that he found an object on the highest rock on the highest mountain. And that an elder from the lowest village in the lowest valley told him to come here. The elder asks to look at this object. The old man opens the cloth to show the elder the object. The elder is blinded by the bright object. He tells the old man to follow the 3rd bridge to the bottom of the foggy valley. "There" he said "will be the answer to your question. The old man goes down the 3rd bridge. He can't see anything but he continues to go down it. The bridge seems to be going forever but feels like he's going up. The sun is becoming more and more noticeable as minutes becomes hours and hours become days. Then out of nowhere, a big gust of wind blows through the foggy valley. The fog is no more. The old man looks around him and see's the bridge with no beginning and no ending. He walks a little further and the object in his hand gets darker. He's almost able to read it. He runs faster so he can read it further. He reads "It is..." on the object but he can't read the rest. He runs again and notices the end of the bridge. He can see that it ends but he can't see what it is connected to. He walks to the edge and looks down to nothing. He looks behind him and see's nothing. He tries to grab the rope of the bridge but it has also disappeared. He looks up to the heavens and see's nothing. He looks at the object and notices that he can read what it says.
It is your time to die old man, Heaven Beside You.
