YOU ARE WHAT YOU'RE SAYING...
You are what you're saying here.
With what you're saying here, your words are made.
With your made words, you present your world here.
Therefore, your world is you and you are your world.

You are what you're saying here... ad infinitum.

You are what you think
With what you think you make your world.
When you think right and do right, you feel comfortable.
When you think wrong and do wrong, you feel uncomfortable.
It is like the shadow of yourself,
when you walk, it walks,
when you run, it run,
when you stop, it stops.
