Once upon a time, in a timeless place, a Little Soul who said to God: "I know who I am!"
"But it's wonderful! And tell me who you are?" asked the Creator.
The Little Soul said: "I am the Light!"
God's face lit up with a big smile: "That's right! You are the Light.
" The Little Soul felt so happy, because he had finally discovered what all his peers in the United would have imagined. "Oh," she murmured, "is really fantastic!"
Soon, however, know who was was not enough, she felt growing inside him a kind of agitation, because he wanted to be what it was. He then returned to God and asked, "Now that I know who I am, if you are okay?"
And he replied: "You mean you want to be Who You Already?"
"Well, one thing is to know, but what to be really ... I mean, I want to understand how it feels being the Light
"You are the Light," God he repeated, smiling again.
"Yes, but I want to find out what it feels like!" wailed the Little Soul.
"Eh, already" confessed to hiding the Creator barely a chuckle, "I should imagine. You always had a great spirit of adventure. "Then he changed his expression." But, but ... There is a little problem .. "
" What is it? "asked the Little Soul.
" Well, there is nothing but light . I see what you've just created and, therefore, I can not suggest anything to hear who you are, because there's nothing you're not. "
" Ehh? " stammered the Little Soul, who by then was struggling to follow him.
"Put in this way, "said God" You are like a candle in the sun Oh, there is no doubt. In the midst of millions of billions of other candles that together make it what it is. And the sun is not the sun without you. Without one of its flames would remain a simple star ... why not be as bright. And therefore the question is this: How to recognize the light when they are surrounded? "
" Hey, "protested the Little Soul," the Creator's you. Devises a solution! "
He smiled again. "I've found," he said. "Since you can not see you as the Light when you are inside the light, you will be overwhelmed by the Darkness."
"And what would this darkness?"
"I am what you're not" was his reply.
"I will fear?" asked the Little Soul.
"Only if you choose to leave you scared," God reassured him, "Indeed, there is nothing to be scared, unless you decide otherwise. You see, we who invent everything. A work of fiction."
"Ah, if it is so ..." gave a sigh of relief the Little Soul.
Then God went on to explain that we come to the perception of things when we see the exact opposite. "And this is a real blessing," he said, "because if they do not, you can not tell. You would not understand what the Warm without Cold, nor on what if there was no down, no Fast without Slow. You would not know what is right in the absence of the Left, and even what they are here and now, if there were there and then. So - ended - when the darkness will be everywhere, you will not shake their fists and curse. Be rather than a flash in the dark and do not let yourself get angry. Then you will know who you really are, and everyone else will know. That makes your light shine to the point of showing everyone how special you are! "
" You mean that it is wrong to make others understand my value, "asked the Little Soul.
"But of course!" God chuckled "It's definitely a good thing! Remember, though, that not mean . All are special, each in its own way! However, many have forgotten. They will understand that it's good to be in when you will understand. "
"Really?" cried the Little Soul, dancing, jumping and laughing with joy. "I can be as special as I want?"
"Oh, yes, and you can start right now," said the Creator, dancing, jumping and laughing in his turn. "How do you like to be?"
"How?" I do not understand. "
"Well," suggested God, "being the Light has no other meaning, but being special can be interpreted in various ways. This was when it was tender, or when was kind, or creative. And yet, it was special when you show patients. Can you think of other examples? "
The Little Soul sat for a moment to reflect. "I've found a lot!" he said finally. "Make yourself useful, and share experiences, and behave like good friends. Be considerate towards others. Well, these are ways to be special."
"Yes!" admitted to God, "and you can choose them all, or find any other way to be special you go to genius, at any time. Here's what it means to be the Light."
