The Rapture and Why I'm Not Able to Blog Today

I woke up today, ready to blog. I really did. But, then.

I was brushing my teeth when the Rapture happened. I was pulled into the sky by the force of my faith. Who knew? I told God I was an atheist, and therefore not eligible for the Rapture, but he insisted. I had, he told me, allowed myself to be saved in my sleep. I had been born again in a dream.

That dream did slowly come back to me as I sat at God's knee. In patches. In impressions. I rarely remember dreams.

God told me that that was enough. It counted, my dreamtime sanctification.

This—my new residence in Heaven—is why I cannot blog today. There is no blogging in Heaven.

You never have. I assumed as much. It's in my nature.
