Subject: I am…

I know well that I am here to be and I know well that there is no why. 

I am part of some chain of events. 

I will weaken and wilt over time like all others. 

I was not put to be the strongest of them. 

I am given everything and handed nothing, and I hold the omnipotent why as well as one can. 

I find passion in all things. 

I was taught to think and I think of teachings not taught by me, and I think of thoughts that have lived before mine. 

I was to be because of all things, none of them the strongest, the wisest, the most substantial. 

I feel passionate for the good and the bad, and am as weak and as strong as all things can be.
