The Elevator [FYI2023]

0 All the way down, in the abyss, a tangled web of infinite potential. Weightless.

1 Darkness while I ascend, a hint of form conducting upwards into roots. A glimpse of light, seeds, the messengers of a living world to come.

2 A light so bright, I'm scared.
Let there be live to protect from death. the everlasting friction, creating enough energy to elevate me against all odds.
With every inch, the light is less blinding.

3 The riches become apparent, and I start to grow on my surroundings.

4 affection to the new starts growing culminating in a rainbow of new impressions.

5 Joyously I exclaim to love the world, while arising furter.

6 I'm abrubtly stopped by a question, asking me questions. Time flies by, and by the time I was ready to move on, all the answers found, clogged up the mechanism.

7 I knew, I know nothing, when I reached myself awaiting me, ready to find the next floor.

Brilliant !

Was thinking about how it might relate to something else.
Thought about the Chakras, then saw your edited title below !

My first imagery was of how the world of things, appears out-of the Quantum pool of infinite potentialities.

It could probably match a few different ideas like that.

S&F.

Newspaper works well. Just keep rubbing it and it will eventually be normal again like the way it was yesterday. The weather changes so you have that to be thankful for at least. Shucks, there, i said it.a reply to: Terpene
