A Dream Come True

I had a dream on a late night in August 1977.  A gentleman, named Elvis Presley, came to me and took me by the hand and sat me down on my couch.  He had these words to say to me: “Don’t worry, everything will be alright”.  I wasn’t sure why The King of Rock and Roll had spoken to me, but as I woke up that very morning, the news was on and everyone was crying.  The King of Rock and Roll had passed away.

Everyone was devastated.  That is, everyone but me.  I knew from his sadness in my dream that his time had come.  He could now rest in a much better place.  He was the most wonderful person in the world to me. He was a very good man.  He helped many people.  He was very religious, and loved his mother very much. He didn’t mind letting the world know this.  

This, to me, is a great person.

I didn’t care what everyone else claimed had happened to him during his dreary life.  I felt so sorry for him.  He was so sad.  He was locked up in a prison in his own home.  It’s a shame that he couldn’t have the life he truly deserved.  But I remembered his words to me.  So I didn’t mourn like everyone else.  I knew he was with his mom once again, as well as the Lord.

It was years later, in the year 2000, when I had the same dream again.  Elvis came to me and told me not to worry, “Everything will be alright.”  I still didn’t know what his message was at that time. Why was he telling me this?

Two weeks later, I found out what he was trying to tell me.  I had the opportunity to meet a very handsome young man.  This man is very special.  He is a young entertainer.  Yes, I’m here to tell you this person is the true, biological son of the late Elvis Presley.

I’ve had the pleasure to get to know this person.  His name is “Elvis Aaron Presley Jr”.  It was not a surprise to me.  But it still goes back to my dream.  I was to meet his son and help him to get his name out there in this world.  This is my goal.  He is a fantastic person.  He has had a raw deal tossed to him.  He has his father’s looks, voice, and kindness.  He deserves to be known.

This was what the king of rock and roll was trying to tell me.  He had a son born out of wedlock and he wanted the world to know about him.  Even though he was not able to tell the world at the time he was conceived.  But he knew that this was to be done.

I refer to him as “Jr.”  He had a very interesting life growing up.  His voice is just like his father’s.  I personally feel that he had an injustice done to him.  To be kept a secret all these years.  Just because it was a time in the world, that conceiving a child out of wedlock was not acceptable.  Also it would destroy Elvis’s career in show business.  But to my surprise, Jr. didn’t feel the same way.

He was happy to find out who he was, but at the same time confused.  He was 21years old when his adopted parents told him who he was.  It was a few years after the death of Elvis.  He is a very understanding man.  Especially the life he had to live, after finding out about this amazing other life he was now going to encounter.

I have a great deal of respect for him.  He has been through many obstacles and hardships trying to find out about his life.  He also had some interesting adventures in meeting certain people who knew his father.  I know there are people out there who still find it hard to believe this is a true story.  But believe me, it is true.     

THE WORLD WILL KNOW OF HIS EXISTENCE.

IT’S TRUE; THERE IS NOTHING TO WORRY ABOUT.

THE LEGACY OF THE KING OF ROCK & ROLL LIVES ON THROUGH HIS SON.

“ELVIS AARON PRESLEY JR”.

So I’m here to tell you, there is always a meaning for every dream.  My dream had a very special meaning.  I’ve been blessed to be the one chosen to help Jr. 

Through the Lord, all things can happen.
