I recently read a quote that said, “you don’t just live in a world but a world lives in you.”
Do you realize how profound that is? I have a world in me. I am a world.
I have continents, countries and cities. I have buildings that house the memories I’ve made with people I have come across. I have rivers, lakes and oceans of tears shed in both sadness and happiness. I have great big trees and little trees of stories I’ve seen and heard. I have mountains of obstacles. My body houses ecosystems working together to create this world.
I have a population – the people in my life. I have people, families. I have foreigners. I have immigrants, emigrants and tourists. I have a religion and beliefs. I have an economy. I have war, battles and conflicts. I can give life and I can mourn death. I have the moon and stars in my eyes that glow. I have a creator and I will have a destroyer. I have a history. I have time, I have years. I have differences and complications. I have beauty and ugliness.
Yes, I am a world and a pretty good one. You too are a world. We all are.
