gorgeous-fiend:

As a mortal you catch glimpses of infinity: the vast expanse of outer space when you look up into the night sky, mathematical equations that never come clean and never repeat, black holes, perfect circles, figure eights. These are all abstract concepts, however. They are  far removed from you and easy to put in the back of your mind as they carry no relevance. It keeps you from going mad.

It is not so simple for an immortal, as the only truly relevant thing is infinity and yet it is still incomprehensible. Inescapable. There is no brushing it off when you look at a face and see an entire universe hidden in just the eyes alone.  Imagine then, looking into the sky and seeing the same. You see yourself reflected everywhere  and you think yes, I am this. I am the infinite made tangible and solid.

It drives many to the brink of insanity.

For myself, even after all this time, I feel nothing but absolute and dazzling  power.
