Magnificent sound explodes from excruciating silence in space. God is created from this sound divine. He then creates his mate, Helvena. Together, they build great kingdoms. The Garden of Eden blossoms into seven continents separated by vast oceans. When satisfied that man is capable of caring for himself, God and Helvena enter other dimensions, creating new worlds. Returning to earth, they find the planet in modern time. God and Helvena appear on the streets of New York City and introduce themselves as deities. They are deemed insane. God and Helvena investigate earth until God resolves that he needs to speak with man. He says that humans are ridiculous and out of control. He warns that if they do not treat where they are as heaven, he will destroy them as he did dinosaurs. Initially, man is terrified. In time, he loses his fear and believes that God's appearance in the sky was a terrible hoax or extraordinary terrorism. When fear subsides, there is rejoicing and laughter until moments before judgment--when man is, indeed, judged.

Sometimes life doesnt always unfold the way you plan. On July 20, 1984 while at USMC Officer Candidate School in Quantico, Virginia, a young Marine was a passenger in a three-ton troop transport vehicle that, while traveling at sixty-five miles per hour, flipped and rolled several times, finally coming to rest upside down. Several Marines were dead, but one man was still alive. He was Terry Smith. After dying twice during brain surgery on that fateful day, Terry Smith has since learned to adjust to the limitations that accompany Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI). At Bethesda Naval Hospital, Terry learned to walk, talk, eat, think, and live again, but learning to cope with seizures, anxiety, insomnia, paranoia, and memory loss did not happen overnightor even after two decades. It is only through years of trial and error that Terry has learned to make the transition from pre-TBI to post-TBI, proving that the healing process is never-ending for head trauma patients. Terry Smith is a true survivor who has defied the odds. Today he shares his inspirational story of hope for the future for TBI patients, their families, doctors, and anyone who has insurmountable obstacles to overcome.
