Fia and I had a good heart-to-heart.
She told me she needed to stay in control so I can survive.
So we went for a walk together.
I showed her my heart and asked if she was in control of its beating.
I showed her my lungs and asked her if she was in control of its breathing.
We agreed something else was controlling.
Something bigger than us.
Who?
I took her to the ocean and we watched the pulse of the tide.
We listened to the wind rush through the trees and the rain fall.
Who controls these forces?
We journeyed into space and watched the Earth turn on its own,
Around the sun with all the other planets.
Who is in control?
We looked deeper into the universe and heard its energy,
Alive and thriving.
Who is controlling it?
We could not see who,
But we could feel it.
Universal energy,
Keeping us all alive and thriving.
Round and round and round we go,
Unfolding and unfolding.
We decided to call it God,
But you can call it whatever you want.
