WATER WORLD
Out of the Mists Something Sacred Calls...
I AM SOPHIA, Ever Changing! There once was a time on Gaia when the Mermaids and Mermen were guardians of the grand seas. Their watery world was pristine and clear, reflecting sky and clouds in variant shades from indigo to turquoise and emerald to lime. The seafoam was so frothy and rich it inspired the birth of Venus and then carried her forth. Gone are those days on Gaia, of the Mer People, though the seals still sing a lament for their majestic friends who let them tag along on sea romps and sunbathing on warm sea rocks. And the Mer People, who were cast from the ocean to roam the land, still long for their watery home.
But life is ever dynamic, seeking and expanding in its thirst to know all. And nothing remains static, for all of and in the material world is impermanent. All of life ebbs and flows as if mirroring the intrinsically mutable element of water. Even so, the Mer People’s Water World does flourish still in a reality of manifest goodness where Truth and Beauty and Love direct all. That which is sacred, can never truly be destroyed.
