Why the Island life?

Until that very same wall came tumbling down on me. My revelation came then and there. Pinned down in a dark, impenetrable hole I "saw the light".  Now, I am not a believer in God per say, but something finally opened my eyes. A voice screamed at the top of its lungs - Why are you not liste...
