There
was a child made of all salt who very much wanted to know where he had
come from. So he set out on a long journey and traveled to many lands in
pursuit of this understanding. Finally he came to the shore of the
great ocean. How marvelous, he cried, and stuck on foot in the water.
The ocean beckoned him in further saying, "If you wish to know who you
are, do not be afraid." The salt child walked further and further into
the water dissolving with each step, and at the end exclaimed, "Ah, now I
know who I am."
