Emerging From the Egg

Emerging from the egg. I know it's a long time coming. I didn't even realize I was in an egg. It was an egg of my own making. Or maybe I inherited it. I was comfortable in there. But I started bumping up against the sides. And cracks started appearing.

I kicked my way through and emerged into blazing sunlight. Who would of thunk it? That big old sun has been waiting for me. I mean it's much bigger than me, doesn't even notice me. But it's been there ready and willing to shine down on my meagerness. And it's warm and giving. And the golden light is everything.
