I am a green colored marble, with crest of transverse wave inscribed, with a thin band of white and green mix. I am very smooth externally and if looked in you can see spread out spangles inside me. I exist with many other marbles around me and we keep moving along the time line.
Few people look at me and say, this is like universe, and some others say this is all crap. Though initially I was confused with these kind of mixed feelings, time taught me to believe in myself and started believing that I am universe for a few.
At times I feel alone, last time when I felt I moved towards another marble to my side. It was a pale yellow one with a golden streak in it. Light was falling on me and the other marble was reacting to it. I started getting warmth from the light, the other marble moved itself to decrease the intensity of heat on me. It was soothing and I was feeling pleasant. I was about to get more close to the marble, someone poured us into a big jar.
I missed it, in fact missed it forever. When I saw the marbles around me, some were looking at me so differently, as if I am nothing and some were not even minding my presence. It was a hard scene to take on and as it was jar I could not move away easily. I tried my level best, I just couldn’t do anything about it. There was light on me many a times and I had to manage the heat by myself. It was a lonely scene and yet I had no water to get out as tears, as the heat was high and my surrounding marbles hated wetness.
Well I started being for myself and making myself ready for a marble who will look again the universe in me. Over a period of time few of the marbles left me and some came closer; the jar was moved.
It was easy with the new marbles for me to see the stars in them and understand their spangles. Slowly the count of marbles seeing universe in me increased. Few were ones what I like and few were the ones who liked me. When I moved towards what I liked I stretched the vision of the one’s I liked. Well I almost damaged myself when I was longing for some marbles and some marbles had a similar fate with me. It was a state of confusion again and well I was not sure how to clear this…
Then there was a shuffle in the jar and it scattered each and every marble and I was no exception. But I wanted this shuffle to be the last one and wanted to attain stability. This time when I was moving I chose the marbles, I did even chose when I was leaving some. It was a quest to find the marbles which matter to my movement. Well this shuffle came in the right time and the heat I borne before made my choosing easier.
This exercise made my life simple. Spangles were shining more and universe was even more beautiful. Now when someone peeps through me, I relish to show the universe I posses in myself and the changes marbles made to it. Well to be even more specific the changes made by the “Marbles That Matter”
