Meet Ambrosia, one of Gitchi Manitou's helpers. Ambrosia tells the story of the beginning. In the beginning, Gitchi Manitou created the earth on which we live. First Gitchi Manitou created the creatures of lights, mountains, trees, fish, birds, and mammals. At this time Gitchi Manitou also created the shires of Eden, Agartha, Atlantis, Shambhala, Aztlan, and Camelot.

Welcome to the wonderful world of consulting. It's a world I know well, having lived it for more than 30 years. What does a consultant do? Well I'm glad you asked. Consultants are brought into a project for their expertise, to speed the project along, and to share their knowledge with the client. Consultants are sought more for their wisdom than for their advice. I try to help the client come to wise decisions rather than telling them what they should do - nobody likes to be told what they should do.

This book is not about chemical elements. I’m going to offer my apologies for that up front, as I know that might be disappointing to a few of you. Rather, this book is about the basic elements which make up the Earth, which make up each of us, which make up everything. These Elements go by various names depending on which element theory you reference. I’ll explain that later on in this book. Then I’ll use a standard naming convention for each of these Elements. This book is about the elements of earth, water, fire, spirit, and sky. It is also about the elements love and life.

Hi. My name is Frank. This is my story. Most of the world didn't live all the way through the cataclysmic events. Most of us who did are content to just write our stories down, place them in bottles, and toss those bottles into the stream. Like most, I'm hoping that somebody downstream will find my story. Then perhaps, all the stories will merge. All the pieces will be put together. And at last we'll finally know what really happened. This is my story of what happened the night the stars went away.

Oops! Now what will she do? A human has seen Nanutea the Angel through no fault of her own. Not only did he see her, he talked to her. And she was so startled that she responded. OK, OK, settle down. Humans aren't supposed to be able to see angels, but sometimes things happen. It's not the worst thing that she's ever done. Well maybe it is. But it wasn't really her fault. Just like it wasn't really her fault when all that snow had fallen off her wings and crashed through the roof of a shed.

Ducker went through life snapping his toes. I suspect you think that that sounds a bit gross and it might be a bit painful. And you’re also under that impression that that might be just a little bit too much information. Perhaps it’s something which you’d rather not know. And since Ducker really liked to snap his toes. And since snapping one’s toes is very difficult to do while wearing shoes and/or socks, Ducker had a great disdain for wearing either shoes or socks.
