Poem for Maya (and any little one)
When you’re small as you are,
the world seems en-O-rmously big – even mo-nu-mental!
Mommy and Daddy - like tall buildings –
Tower up there in the sky – along with the sun
and the plane flying up so high.
But – actually! – you too are oh-so-very big –
Simply look down and notice an ant –
That funny little bug – you know – with antennae like antlers…
The thing is, my love, everything is exactly in scale:

“By the same token, you aren’t information; you are that which is in formation—the indefinable essence that manifests as thoughts, feelings, and sensations. In short, you aren’t mind, you are the consciousness behind it.”

“You aren’t like anything or anybody else, even if you are similar. Similarity isn’t sameness. No one is the same as you. Number 1.0000001 is very, very close to 1, but it still isn’t a true 1. Only 1 is 1. And only you are you. There is no one like you. You are not an almost-you, or a kinda-you, or a sorta-you. You are one of a kind, fully and uniquely you!”
