Sandbox

The world is nothing but a sandbox, each grain a fragment by itself, insignificant and hard to see. The gathering of grains each point a sand of time flows fluid blended into polished glass. The shining reflections bend the points of life into each other intertwined and bound. The wind blows across the remains picking up and carrying away the memory of single individuality. The world is one, won by the binding of the many in harmony returning to the sandbox.

The beginning and the end is the crux of the issue- the world is a sandbox and each grain finally returns to it ! Congrats Babbit!
