The Earth is 4,5 billion years old... 4,5 billion years of memories experienced by both life and atoms. You can almost grasp what it was like back then The strangely familiar feeling, warm and comforting as if it's part of you and as if you are part of it The world stares back when you stare at 'it' Thus the world is watching you walk it has no eyes because it has no need for it it can see clear and it's eye pierces what no eye can ever see The serene being living for over 4 billion years.. Can you fathom the life experience? What it has been through? I can't and I know I'm not ready yet.
But what I do know of my soul is that it's commited to something. It's trying to achieve something for over two thousand years now. It would be truly grand if a soul's lifetime lasts a lifetime of Earth. I find purpose in knowing that I want to achieve something over a time of multiple lives. It makes me feel less useless because it gives me time to further develop myself. And when I talk of family I can't help but wonder. What if I'm your successor and I have committed myself to the task that you have when it is time for you to retire?
Just a thought about a conversation I had. And it's really just a thought.
