  Preamble

  WHOSE TO SAY WHERE a story really begins? Is it when a door opens or when a character makes an entrance?

  All stories begin with action and actions begin in the mind—just like the door that had to be thought of before it could be carved, fitted and hung on a frame to open in the perceived beginning. It has to be there for someone to walk through. Then the lines are spoken and gesticulations made. Action is executed, inspiring reaction.

  Thought is the doorway and by virtue of its’ existence, action becomes unavoidable.

  So, where did my part in this twisted tale begin? That’s easy; it was the same place as yours—before we existed, before conception, before your mom met your dad. Before, even, they were born. As my dearly departed Grandmother used to say whenever she referenced an occasion that took place before my time, “When you were still a twinkle in God’s eye…”

  You have to know that all of this was predestined, predetermined, orchestrated and carried out by your forefathers and left for you to pick up and carry on to the finish.

  The stones are your baton, your legacy, Gerry. You were made for this.
