The Universe in Ourselves
I have this theory that the universe recreates itself after its destruction. The same atoms are present, so the same universe is born again. In a way, humans mimic this behavior. In Christianity, baptism represents this theory… Sin being the destruction of the universe and baptism being the reconstruction… You rebuild yourself. You’re healed, you’re saved. Relapse is the destruction, recovery is the reformation. You pick yourself back up and become a better person. We are universes. We have starry eyes and we are unique, we are complex. Just because we fell down once it does not mean we cannot rise again into something beautiful. “There is a world inside of me.”

I hope people willl get a better understanding of life and how similar all things are to each other. Our universe is alive in a sense, just like us. I hope it will make people feel less alone, and realize that relapse is okay. I want people who are scared to be religious to be whatever they want and realize it's okay.
