Long time ago, when I was in my Mum’s belly, I had a lot of dreams.
For most of them I’ve forgotten, only this one…
A little girl had found an egg in a Whale’s belly.
She wanted to keep this egg, but was afraid that it would die.
So she decided to look for its mother.
On her journey, she met Seagull Mother, Hippocampus Couple, and Clown fish Couple.
But neither of them were its parents.
While the egg became bigger and bigger.
A Giant was burn from it.He continued to grow up.
And became the Sky, the Earth, and the World…
The little girl woke up, finally.
She decided to say farewell to the Whale.
And looked to her own Birth.
