I was born into the beautiful perfection that is the universe. Everything me is only passing in the great river of the infinite, but I am important because all of existence dwells within me. I'm the sum of more than 15 billion years of existence and 4.5 billion years of biology here on Earth. Who knows where I came from beyond that, but it's my body that holds the secrets of the universe. My consciousness is merely a byproduct. But what a fantastic byproduct this whole consciousness thing is. Though, just as with all things, it has its ups and its downs. I've lived through a lot of downs, but I've found balance with just as many ups. But of course I can't always find balance. So when shit starts getting shitty, I try to go back to the whole I am infinity thing. Eventually, I purge myself of the nasty byproducts of my true self's byproduct and go back to being Matthis, a byproduct, but a very tasty byproduct.
