Hallucinations In The Clouds

I arrived at UC Berkeley in the Summer of '96 to attend a summer bridge program before my freshman year started. Most of the students who were living on campus were athletes and those who wanted to experience what college was like before it actually began. Living in the dorms without any supervision and a desire to do whatever wasn't a good combination.

Before I ever actually entered a classroom I found myself roaming the streets of Telegraph looking for drugs. For some reason my friend Sara and I had the obsession of dropping ACID on campus. If you know anything about Berserk-Ley you already know that it didn't take us that long to find what we were looking for. Exploring our new campus became an adventure as we hiked up and down amazed at the trails we saw.

I think the reason I will never forget that night is because what I saw in the clouds. As I was high on ACID gazing into the sky I saw something that made my heart break completely. Some might think it's crazy to think that God can speak to someone while they are HIGH as a kite. But that's what happened. I had a vision of my father holding me as a baby. At the time I began crying uncontrollably because of the estranged relationship I had with my father. What I didn't know then that I know now was that my HEAVENLY FATHER was calling me. HE wanted me to know that HE had me in HIS arms and wasn't going to let go.
