And something you said at the beginning struck me because there's an old idea that says the soul, each person that's born
in terms of the old imagination, is a soul coming into the world.
And the soul is here to transform.
And to transform means to move from one form to another.

Inability to transform gets people stuck and they can be stuck in depression or just stuck in the sense of exclusion or stuck on one side of a false binary division.

And she realized she had to do something.
And she's walking down the street and passing a pet store.
And in the window was a bowl with a goldfish.
And she thought, that's it, I'll get a goldfish and then I'll have a companion.
So she gets, she buys the bowl and the fish and then she puts the water in and puts the bird.
