What would I like to be most?

The deep, calm blue water?

The fish that blows a bubble and produces those lovey circles on the water surface?

One of the two birds in their eloquent silence?

A shadow that never is separated from his origin?

The rocks that just lie there silently, yet define the boundaries of everything else?

The light that gives all other elements their colour?

The all-encompassing silence?

One of the magical sounds that hovers over the scene, like a cheerful butterfly?

One of the richly complex smells that tell wordless stories?

Right here, right now… how would my soul fit into this scene? Do I notice how infinitely valuable my contribution to the big picture really is, regardless of what I am?

It seems important to me above all that we understand ourselves as part of the big whole and also align our actions and thoughts with it.

And then suddenly I am the image. Then I am the water and the rocks, the light and the colors, the living beings and their shadows… then I become whole.
