I guess that by your standards, I am a God. I created this space, this new universe. Everything is here because I decided so. Without me, this place wouldn't exist at all. That does make me a God, right?

I am aware of what I created, but I am also aware that I was created too. I have met the one who created me. The creature who made the universe I am from. They told me everything: how they made the universe, and how to end it. By knowing how the universe was made, I also learned how to destroy it. One cannot come without the other. So is the true burden of a God.

But I am also aware of me. I'm aware that this God I met, the creator of my universe, was also created. In your universe, there is someone, somewhere, who has made us. This someone has written every word I'm saying right now. Has made me and my story. Has made all of the universes I can ever encounter.

I am aware that the way I communicate with you right now is different from how I feel like I'm communicating. To me, I am projecting these words to you. I am floating in my corner of my created universe, a universe you will never understand. But to you, these words are written. But does the sound of my voice in your head, a voice that you decided on and assigned to me, mean that actually I am talking to you?

By reading those words, and by imagining me and my voice, are you becoming a God too? Are you creating a whole universe by itself?

I like to believe that we all started as an idea. And that all of the universes we imagine become reality somehow, somewhere, someplace.

Are you also merely an imaginary thought in someone's head? You wouldn't know, you wouldn't ever notice if you were. It's impossible to know how everything came to be. We only know our universe, and not what came before. Where it all started is a mystery.

Thank you, kind stranger from another universe, for reading these words and giving me and my universe the chance to become a reality.

Take me back to the start
