“..THERE will always be a missing piece in life. It could be either something that is left undone or someone who you could not be able to come together with. Maybe the last piece has all the meaning of our lives and therefore it is always hidden” said Elisa, before she started her talk. It might be a specific moment that we have to spend the rest of our lives searching that missing diamond piece. Because, without that last piece, nothing will be complete..” Similar to this, what was the missing piece and the true meaning of Alice’s life before she became Elisa? She had to discover it. But she would have to take a really long trip to discover this. TRAVELER PILGRIM: Before I met Elisa, I had read such thing like below, in the book of the Muslim: “This life of the world is nothing But a Pastime and a Game.” (Quran, The Book of Islam) “How could this be possible? Or is this the true meaning of the life?” were the questions that I asked myself since I read this. Is there an imaginary world and a real one? But after meeting Elisa and seeing these alternative (imaginary) worlds, I slowly realized that I am in a world of amusement indeed. Finally I could see that everything is a fictitious game in this book. I am sure that you will agree with me and rethink about the “truth” as you keep reading this book in which Elisa lived and my interesting trips with Elisa. And you’ll be remember that In the universe, Everything has both an imaginary view and a real one, after this long trip!. “..Could the life we live and we consider as real be a fancy and funny fiction? What is reality? This has been discussed again and again, throughout history. It has inspired artists and philosophers.” He was just a little boy according to his parents. Time has passed quickly. But he decided not to lose his childish spirit in spite of everything. He would find a way to implement his belief about finding the elixir of youth and the eternity of life. - “Soon we will take a step into a new period by discovering the truth in this alternative world!” he was saying while searching for the elixir of immortality all the time. "A black rabbit sneaked into a white hole.." What was that? There was not the world we knew, everything was meaningless but a brand new world and a vision were awaiting for the rabbit.." The Miraculous “WONDERLAND”: Where EVERYTHING is POSSIBLE..

Industry and innovation led the way with the promise of prosperity, giving hope that even the commoner could climb above the threshold of poverty, keeping the hunger wolf at bay. Automobiles expanded horizons, bringing nearby communities within a day's trip. The thrill of new inventions and modernization created an excitement of what new and wondrous things could be next. Euphoric excitement was like a drug propelling the nation into the latter of the Golden Age; however, everything involved a dance of concessions, hard work, wit, and in a world where promiscuity and crime were commonplace, could innocence still conquer a heart? Victor, a former strong arm and lead for a Chicago syndicate, became a friend and confidant of the most powerful businessman in the small town of Helena, Montana. Together, they began laying the foundations of the first legislation dedicated to limiting the use of child labor and considerations of other laborer rights.
