Remember, This is about YOU

The start of my journey begins as  I am told 'Remember this story is all about YOU'.  

I look up, I am insignificant, how can I compare myself to such magnificence,  I bow my head in surrender, feeling of loss, bewildered, where do I fit in, this place is so vast, too open, it's frightening, I am nothing compare to all that I  can see, sometimes it light, the sun is beaming through and I can see so much,  another time its very dark and I am afraid. 

I  seek shelter under a humongous tree. I hear all kind of voices, all chattering at the same time, I can't make out what's been said, then suddenly I hear " hello little one" sweet, soft and mellow, very comforting, I peep out to see where the voice was coming from, and from whom. " hello there little one, why are you hiding under there, come on out and show yourself".

"Well, well, ain't you perfect, simply beautiful", I looked up and see that I am surrounded by brightly coloured trees, of all shapes and sizes, the chattering continues, " what are they saying? I said", "well little one, we are so honoured to see you, it's been a long time since we have seen such a beautiful Acorn such as yourself, we are your ancestors, here to welcome you, too greet you and to guide you on your journey, you are very special, very precious to this world, " this gathering is all about you, your welcoming committee, so to say".

"Join us, and we will tell you how you came into been, well!! how you arrived here,  and teach you to grow strong, in wisdom, strength, love and beauty, as big as the tree you were hiding beneath. How does that sound to you?". This is the beginning of a long, hopefully rewarding and beautiful story. And Remember, This story is all about you " THE READER.
