Upgraded

       E-Rod's first day of school was a day to remember,
for his parents to remember and for the whole school to
remember .He was 5 years old and was holding both his
mom and dad's hand with a big smile on his face
as they entered  the school .His parents walked into the
principal's office and signed some papers and headed
of to his class .
       When they got at the door of his new class room
they bent down and said to him, " OK Eliza I know it
would be hard for you to let us go but...".
       Eliza dashed in a flash to his sit and left his
parents giving a speech to the air in the room .
       His mom said " They grow up so fast ".
       And his father said " Yep ,they do just like the bills ". 
his mom said as she patted her hand on him, " Steve ". 
      As he turns both hands sideways  and lifted them up
to his face He says " am just saying " .
     So they saw  Eliza would be alright so they left .
     Two hours later after his parents left ,the land line
was wringing  .
     His dad picked the call and said "Hello ".
     The principal the caller said urgently "Hi Mr Rod it is
your son come quickly ".
     His father said worriedly as his face changed , he
said " Eliza, what happened to Eliza ,is he OK ?..... ".
     He heard a buzzing sound , the principal already
ended the call before he could say any thing else .
his wife said as she came down the stairs " Honey who
was that on the phone ".
     He said as he put on his jacket and lunched his
hand to the keys on the table "That was Eliza's principal
we have to go now , it sounds urgent let's go ".
     As they entered the car his mom said worriedly,
     " What happened to our son is he OK ".
     Her husband said even though he was not calm at
the moment ," Calm down , his principal said 'we should
come quickly ' but did not say why ".
     She said  in a short prayer ," My boy I hope he is
alright Lord please keep him safe ".

     As they got into the school, they rushed in to the
principal's office and saw there son sitting on the chair
opposite the principal's chair , swinging his legs .
    They where relieved when they saw him, they knew
he was OK and nothing was wrong with him . They saw
he was not hurt , not a scratch on him , not a
single strand of hair missing from his head . you get the
picture he was alright and they where panicking for
nothing .
    They said " what was so urgent ?" .
     His principal said " Your son he is an extraordinary
young lad ."
     He continued , " He ,he, I can't tell you , you have to
see it for your self ".
    The principal took them to the 8th grade up the stairs.
    When they got into the class room they saw a
completed formula on the bord it was beautifully
worked out .
    The principal pointed at the bord and said " That , that
is why I called you to come urgently ".
    His mother said " That my son did that ?" .
    His father said as he took off his glasses from his
face,"Wow it was urgent ".
    The principal said " Your son is truly blessed " .
    The principal said " we have to move your son to a
higher class he has a rare gift , we would just test him
on some things and we would have him there ".
    They where surprised and could not say anything but
nod their heads .
    His mom through one back at his dad with her two
eyes sideways looking at him with a smile on her face
she said " What where you saying about the bills again
? ".

.
Life after high

     E-Rod was still 5 years old when he left high school
and learnt a few tricks and tips over a year from
watching his father build things . His father knew he
was interested in engineering so he showed him how
to make a few things over the year. 2 years past and he
was allowed  to go to a special university through a
special program called The Little Einstein.
    The little Einsteins was an organization looking for
young prodigies.  Eliza was the youngest prodigy in the
whole University .
    After studying everyday at the Little Einsteins
university he went home to his aunt .
    The university was close to her house so he went
there every evening. He spent 4 Years at the University .
His aunt's name is Reva.
Reva was his  fathers sister , who is an atheist.
     His 4 years stay at his aunt's was  tuff because she
could not stand any thing that had to do with believing .
     She had a saying " Can't hear it , see it , or feel it don't
believe it ".
    Once Eliza was reading his bible in the living room .
    His aunt said nicely ,"Eliza what are you reading".
    He said with an innocent smile,"A story in the Bible
about how God protected Daniel's friends in the burning
fire ".
    She said with so much disgust on her face ,
"Impossible! "
    "They are just stories why do you waist your time with
such tales ".
    "No man can possibly survive in fire why do you waist
your brilliant mind on such fables ".
    Eliza said ," They did not do it on their own God
helped them ".
    His aunt was filled with so much steam ,you could
literally see her bringing steam out of her ears as she
turned red she said as she exploded ," There is no I
repeat no God in this world he does not exist !"
    "Science is real science you can see science you can
hear !"
    "A garden not seen to man a fruit that does not exist !"
    "Where is God Huh !"
    "do you know where he is no because
he simply does not exist !"
    "Then stop wasting your precious time reading
childish fables !"
   "Instead use it on something useful ".
     Eliza was speechless and was to young and did not
have much solid Evidence so he simply said , "OK aunt
Reva ".
     Then she said pleased with the result of the outcome
of her speech ,"Remember cant hear it , see it , or feel it
don't believe it ".
     Over the years she removed all source of believe and
turned it into logic  . Even though he went home to his
parents for the holidays it was not the same anymore ,
he just did not believe in God anymore . Tho he did not
believe in God , God loved him and was not going to
give up on him.
