"Who am I? Well if I gave you the usual answer.. I`m sure you would get about 1/4 of the way thru and say.. hmm.. that`s what they all say.. so I`ll do what I do best.. use a metaphor... If you were to see me as a pond, I would just be another oddly shaped body of water with no remarkable features.. but were you to by chance fall or (if you knew what was beneath the surface, you would definitely) dive in, you would not find layers, but different variations of properties associated with the various depths.. pressure, light, visibility, warmth, comfort, pleasure.. and if you got deep enough you would see that not only could you breathe in the essence of who I am, but that doing so would be a delightful, nearly euphoric experience in itself.. to the extent that you would reconsider the value of air itself.. and since every round goes higher.. the deeper you go the more intense the feeling, so you would just find yourself sinking into a small pond that didn`t even look like it could get your whole foot wet."
