75%

We are the water that knows.
The water that walks,
the water that talks.
Water remembers and water forgets.
In the sky we hide our heads.
Our reflections reflect themselves in puddles
which we see with eyes of water.
The wind blows in and out
of lungs of water.
The ripples of our thoughts
trickle through the deep parts of the earth
and are lost
in water.

Wow, that is very cool and thought provoking. The other night I was thinking about "dark energy" or that majority part of the universe that is still so mysterious. I know it can't be water, but the comparison to it kept nagging at me. And not that it really matters, but in Genesis it says that God created the sky to separate the waters.

"6 And God said, Let there be a firmament in the midst of the waters, and let it divide the waters from the waters. 7 And God made the firmament, and divided the waters which were under the firmament from the waters which were above the firmament: and it was so. 8 And God called the firmament Heaven. And the evening and the morning were the second day."

Curious imagery anyway. Sorry for rambling.

Oh, and another thing that I like to say to my kids sometimes is that we are just very complex bags of watery goo. ;-)
