Every Book Ever Written
The biggest library in the Universe
I stared at the words carved in marble above the big metal double doors. It read, “Every Book Ever Written.” Wow, if this really was a library that contained every book ever written then I definitely wanted to go in and browse. But the tall double doors had no doorknobs or handles with which to open them.
Do I knock? Or what? Then I noticed a metal panel on the marble wall to the right of the doors. In the middle of the panel was a small computer screen with the outline of a right human hand printed on it. Hmm…
I stepped up to the panel and placed my right hand on the screen inside the hand outline. Suddenly, the two big doors began opening. They did not swing out or in but rather opened to the sides away from each other. Once they were fully opened I stepped inside.
I was blown away. There were book shelves that stretched as far as I could see. There must have been hundreds of millions of books. I am a book freak so to see so many books and to feel the vibes of all those books was an orgasmic experience. Did I die and go to heaven?
I began slowly walking down the center aisle with shelves of books on either side of me. I could not see the end of the aisle. It was too far away.
