Little Black Book

In the beginning...

Little Black Book

Behold, the beginning of a new and beautiful world, emerging from the ashes of the old, figuratively speaking of course. No one can really remember the old, and to be honest I don’t think anyone wants to. Though no one could remember, there is this dark disturbing feeling one gets from thinking back further than yesterday. I don’t know how you feel about it, but I think some things should just be left in the past. Nevertheless, godly men, and women, rose in this new day and you could feel it in the air. There was one specific man that spent his whole life looking for one pure soul, and with that pure soul he’d be able to… we’ll get to that. They called this man Sonnie and Sonnie was a man of the people and for the people.

It seems like yesterday, probably because it was, Sonnie woke up from an intense dream full of chaos and confusion and had a strange feeling that this dream would inevitably come to pass. From that day he decided that he would have to do anything he could to prevent this tragic event from becoming a reality. He never went anywhere alone, wherever you seen him you could always find his best friend Em, which was his bull terrier. “Em, what did I tell you about eating off the table? Do you want me eating your food out of your bowl?” Em drops his head with disappointment, but he knew he would soon be forgiven. Sonnie could ever stay mad at Em, Em was too good to Sonnie, they were truly best friends. Sonnie starts to get out of bed to get started with their day. “I had the craziest dream Em, and I don’t dream so something is up” he says while wiping the crust out of his eyes. “We are going to have a really busy day; hope you had your Wheaties.” He looks at Em with a scornful yet playful look. “What am I saying, you ate mine.” Sonnie reaches down and pets Em. “Go get your leash buddy!” Em takes off to get his leash as Sonnie goes to prepare himself for the day.

On their way out of their camper this specific morning something amazing happened, destiny happened if you were wondering. He finally found that pure soul that he was looking for. But it was not just one, there were six. “Good morning class, I see we have some new people today.” See Sonnie was a life coach/unregistered therapist, and he like to work with groups in nature. He believed it brought us closer to our true selves, and his worked proved it. “You all want to introduce yourself?” Em had already made himself familiar with the new bunch. There was Randy, Gene, Alex, Jay, Ariel, and Chucky. Sonnie could tell that there was something different about them from the way Em engaged with them, they were truly special. Now again, Sonnie had spent years looking for just one pure soul, but he had no idea that they have been looking for him all this time. Gene had approached Sonnie with a little black book and told him that he was special and may have been the only person on Earth that could decipher what was in that book. Somehow Sonnie knew that it could help find answers to the dream that had woken him that morning. So, he started, and he felt what he was reading, and knowledge poured out onto everyone that was present to hear it. And incredible things started to immediately happen for those that was there. The weak became strong, the blind had sight, the poor were then rich-ish. It was like money was just falling out of the sky, $20,001 to be exact but whose counting.

They realized the power of this little black book and knew that they would have to do whatever they could to keep it out of the wrong hands. It doesn’t take the brain of Einstein nor the imagination of a child on in trouble to know what could happen if this got out the cold-blooded. So, they took note of it, memorized and saved every piece of knowledge in the book into their heads then hid it from the world. And that brings us to today. They had their mind made up that they would travel across the world and teach those that were good and willing to commit to learning. Just so that there are no holes left open, he was indeed able to help save the world by finding these other pure souls. It was like a miracle or something the way that it happened, you got to love it. Em never stopped eating Sonnies’ food off the table, so not everything changed, but it was all love.
