haecceity

by gabriel-bonney

You are made of stone. As are we all. We are all sculptures, sculpted by the world. But what the world will not tell you is you are a masterpiece, sculpted by the Sculptor. You were made good, your splendor carved by the Creator, even before His creation. The Almighty knew you, even before a scentence spoke the world into existance in an instant. He knew every chisel, ever groove, every crease, etched in His image. The world had convinced you that you have a heart of stone, but this is not so. Though your exterior may be as rough, inflexible, and ridged as a rock, your heart is written in blood and laps against your rigorous appearances. Your heart, my counterpart, is not made of stone. It is a roaring sea, of soul and emotion you have left alone, and it longs to break free.
