DAY 365+108

Origins

My body can come from earth 
and to earth shall return.

My rational brain seems to be grounded in it too,
 always calling for rational answers. 

Even my heart, the axis of my emotions, has a mundane reminiscence, 
focused in my temporal identity 
and its obsessions. 

Maybe there is also something terrestrial in my personality,
my steady willpower in constant search for new goals, 
new challenges, 
new responsibilities. 

And what can I say about my so very human resistance
and my silent and conventional passions?. 

They all can be associated with qualities of heaviness, 
with matter. 

In fact, they are dust
and to dust shall return. 

But my soul,
oh!, my soul belongs to the wind, 
to the ethereal reigns of eternity. 

My adventurous soul has wings
and moves freely 
and explores. 

It comes from the air,
from the core of the energy -the spirit- that creates the universe 
and to the air shall return.
