Who Are You

I answered the door quickly For I was expecting a friend I stared at the three-dimensional being Who looked like me. Who are you? I asked; I was barely breathing. My clone laughed as if delighted. Are you here from another planet? I thought. She threw back her head and laughed harder. I tried to blank my mind. Not easy to do with all of these feelings. She reached over and pulled out my heart.

In meditation this is the top of the mark Shirley. I took my nine-year-old daughter to a meditation once, and the instructor asked what we had seen. My daughter was the only one who had seen herself. This is the TOP apparently.

Oh wow, I don't know what to say about this one. What a creative idea, opening your front door and find yourself standing there. Original concept!

Thank you so much. This was a writing prompt. You were supposed to answer the door and say who you saw.
