Deep inside me is a small piece of gold, the smallest particle. Sometimes, when I want to look at it, I can find a glimpse of its warmth somewhere in my chest. At this point, the whole world comes together, deep and immense, very large, boundless, wide.
It was in this piece of gold that God put all His love, tender, subtle, and at the same time very strong and powerful, at the time of my birth. He asked me to cherish it for the rest of my life. To cherish and nurture it like birds cherish their nests. This is a sign that God has put on my soul. I just need to know about it.
And in my stomach, there is a fire that keeps these nests warm, raising spiritual birds. The fire glows on the gold, and sometimes this light shines outward through my eyes, warming people, animals, earthly spirits, and heavenly angels.
And through my life, I carry gratitude for this gold from God, because it is the most valuable of all that I have.
