What Hides Behind the Golden Gate - Curiosity Kills the Cat

"When we were kids we were taught to believe in Gods and Lords. I believed in none of them. All the stories seemed so made up and contredicted one another. No matter how many stories and legends I would hear, none of them seemed real or convincing. 'Your soul goes to him when you die, you don't just vanish' they would say to me, but none of it made sense. Looking back, maybe the stories did make sense, I just wanted to vanish, or maybe I hoped for something more interesting. My mother handed me a book one day: 'The Great Golden Gates.' I read it twice, or maybe several of times, I don't remember. Each read led me to discover something new, like the fact there were coordinates at the end of chapters. They samed fake, made up, until I followed them and they led me somewhere very real. And suddenly I am the one writing stories and legends to keep curious cats like me far, far away from the gates. Believe me when I tell you:
You don't want to see what hides behind the Golden Gates."
