You Are an Axis of Creation

Your life is a story being told by the universe. What you write is just a subplot.

Dear Living Dark readers,

To lead with the lede:

If you want to awaken your innate creativity, learn to recognize your very existence as a story: a narrative created by the universe. A tale being told within Being itself.

And now to back up slightly: At first I was inclined to open this post by calling it a “Monday morning meditation,” since I wrote it yesterday, on a Monday, and since the alliteration sounds nice. But it’s actually Tuesday when I’m publishing it, so that won’t do. And “Tuesday morning meditation” doesn’t roll off the tongue with the same alliterative charm. Whatever you call it, this post is about the connection between two levels or layers of creativity that converge in the human experience. Or rather they converge in the human phenomenon as a whole, in the very fact and nature of our existence as the kind of being that we are.
