The net-bag


"My child, I carry you within my net-bag. I carry you and I keep you close to my body and my breath and my heart. My child, do not be afraid. Look around at this wonderful and wild world that awaits you. I know you are scared. We are all scared. But you are here now and since you are here the wise thing to do is to live. You will live a  special life because you are special as well. We are all so uniquely constructed. We are all carriers of past lives and past dreams that mix with our own. So look around, my child. Look at people; some will look back at you, some won’t- but that’s just fine. Look at time; reflect on the past, act in present, hope and plan for the future. Look at all those different places; do not compare them, it’s useless. Travel, acknowledge others and make a home wherever you want. Use your mind, but do not overuse it. Feel accordingly to the situations and the events, but do not exaggerate. Respect the human analogies. Aim high but avoid being extreme. Make choices. Accept the fact that we cannot do everything or be everyone. Accept reality and use it. And hope my child, always hope. Because we may be alone in this world but we are alone within net-bags where we can be close to someone else’s body, and breath, and heart."
