Today, I woke like I’ve woken many days before.
Everything feels like it’s on repeat.
What am I gonna do today?
Am I hungry?
What am I gonna eat?
Blah, blah, blih, blah…
The day becomes a beat in the song of life.
If you zoom out—into the heavens and the stars—and look down,
all you see is a dot.
And that dot?
It’s not even me.
It’s not even you.
It’s just the place we all live in.
Moving aimlessly… dot. dot. dot.
All we are is a dot in the cosmos.
⸻
So why was today important?
That’s the question I’ve been asking every day lately.
And my answer?
I am the alien.
I’m not from the cosmos.
I’m from the ether—that place we all come from but don’t remember.
Our memories were erased the day we took the oath
to visit this place we call Earth.
But how?
The bones.
The flesh.
That’s our space suit.
We are magic.
We came from a place we forgot,
given this body—this astronaut suit—
so we could experience this day
and maybe a few more days after.
And then?
We return.
So…
What have you learned,
you immortal soul trapped in mortal flesh?
⸻
In my younger years, I cried in my mind:
Why is my life so shitty?
Am I good enough?
Does the original source—even know?
To some, that source is Allah.
To others, Jesus.
To some—just “The Source.”
Or maybe… God.
Does He know how shitty I’m living?
Does He understand that one of His creations is unhappy with His existence?
That was then.
Now, I see what I couldn’t see before:
I am magic.
And so is everyone we meet and speak with.
They don’t always say it out loud,
but they tell you—indirectly:
You are not alone, son. You are not alone, daughter.
Here, in this life, you will meet others.
You will converse. You will experience love.
To someone, you are important.
Be glad.
Embrace the magic.
