Creating Yourself

Life is as beautiful as you nurture it to be.

There are many ways to live life. No one is better than the other.

A small lump of clay, amorphous, complete with full potential, just like a blank canvas, sits idle on the wheel.
Many factors make it, mould it, create it into what it becomes. The potter, water, wheel, the sun, wind, temperature, furnace; each has its effect on the final pot that is made. Once made, the pot cannot be reshaped. It is what it is, on one hand, a beautiful creation but on the other hand, rigid and unyielding. The potential it had, realised or lost?

Then there is clay that grows into many lovely things. Like water, the element representative of love, it can take many shapes, solve many purposes. It doesn't differentiate between that what is like it and that what isn't simply because everything is in it and it sees itself in everything. This is clay that is shaped not by a potter but by the loving life force of the nurturing universe/chi/prana what ever it is known as, to you.

This clay is forever growing, forever loving and is the perfect example of 'Life is as beautiful as you nurture it to be'.
