zero :: one gem

Hello, new friend! How're you? I'm great! Call me Zee Too; my real name would make your head implode.

Ha hah hah hah! That's a great joke, isn't it? I like that joke.

Where did you come from? I live here in the Flower Kingdom. It's the mostest beautiful place EVER! I Love It! The sun shines so happily, the flowers show many happy colors, the trees spread happy feelings, and everybody is happy happy happy! And there's always things to do. I can run, and jump, and dance, and climb up on the rocks to jump into the clear pure lakes to make a big splash! And then float back to shore to do it again! Or I can sit in the sweet-smelling grass and enjoy a good sun bath.

I am a, uh, what do you call it? An Asterk Flower? Something like that. I'm the only one like me around here, but that's okay. I have lots and lots and lots of friends, like three, who are called Ghulibas. They're really nice and funny and know lots of good jokes like kicking me into the lake to make a different kind of splash. They like to dance too, although they don't jump like I do. When we all sing and dance together, that's the best days, I think.

Do you see the flag monument? It's awesome, right! Cause it has that white flag that waves in the wind. Sometimes I sit on a rock near it and watch it for hours because it's fascinating. It has stuff to say too. Mostly this: 'Be happy, because this is a wonderful place!' And this: 'Be happy and keep things bright!' So I do all that I can to make everybody happy, like playing along with the Ghulibas' tricks. Being happy is good and important.

But there's also something else it says, which has often confused me. See? It's right here on top, where you normally don't look, and it says: 'You have a terrible memory. If you want answers, find the gems and listen. When you have the right question, you will know what to do. Evert to find the truth within.' I don't know what it means. I don't think I have a terrible memory. But if I do, I wouldn't remember! Ha ha! That's a good joke too!

But now I'm wondering. Do I have a bad memory? Who are you again?

Where did that come from? It is so pretty, like a rainbow in a pebble. Is that what the monument calls a gem? It fits the sound of it. Then I have to take it and listen, huh? Okay, I can do that. I don't know what I'm listening for...

...no. I do. That's it, I want to know who you are. That means I should use eversion...

...like finding a differently colored thread and pulling on it to change the fabric of everything around you...

...such a tremendous feeling of power... this is fun!
