I used to be fire, burning hot. I used to be water. I used to be air. I used to be a stone, heavy and solid. I balanced out the elements inside myself and became a cell, living, growing. I used to be a flower, and I grew and grew and grew, and when I blossomed... ...I blossomed into a fish, fast and sleek and salty as the seas I swam through. I used to be different creatures, growing ever more complex with each iteration. And then I became human and wanted to know what is up there in the height above, so I became a butterfly. I became a butterfly, but my fragile wings could not carry me high enough, so I became a bird. I became a bird, flying high among the winds and clouds, but even the sky was not enough. I started growing again, bigger and bigger, expanding my borders, embracing more, taking in more and more of the world into myself. I became islands, I became mountains, continents even. And I wanted more still, I wanted to connect all the things inside myself, and so I became the planet… then I became the solar system.. and then I became the galaxy… and then I grew and grew and grew until I contained everything. “I am all things together and each thing separately. Just as you are”.
“I am consciousness and I have no boundaries, no limits, no matter which form I take. And I want to reveal myself in you.”
