What You're Not and What You Are

just in case you don't know yet

You are not...

an accident,

a child of chances,

a product of random thoughts fused into flesh and bones,

an apology of one monumental mistake,

a mere illusion . . .

nothing more.

You are...

a purpose,

a child of a conscious choice,

a product of  limitless possibilities fused into flesh and bones,

a sum of one monumental miracle,

a reality . . .

nothing less.

Author's Note

I tell myself this when I am in distress.

I enjoy delving into mystical thoughts such as this. Chance may arrive at a solution for bringing about conscious choice within the fullness of time, but once it has, chance must defeat itself. Chaos has no choice but to generate free will, order, and purpose as one of its permutations.

Reads as the fears and realizations of an illegitimate child brought into this world by chance in a moment of love's illusions. Lots of emotional impact and turmoil in this one, although it ends on a high note, kudos Arzel!
