Quintessence

Fire

Raging passion. Kindled sparks. Conflagrant fury and murderous bloodlust. Unbridled energy. Insurgent power. Ardent ambition and flaring potential. Warmth and hope. Burning love and incendiary ideas. Flickering beauty in celestial embers.

Water

Floods of overwhelming odds. Drowning depression. Torrents of voices that tear apart the mind, the heart, the will. Tyrannical tidal waves sweeping all order into drifting chaos. Majestic waterfalls of world-moving force. Steamy geysers and buoyant undulations. Dark, ruminative lakes reflecting the sky and spirit together. Glittering gorges with runaway rapids.

Earth

Quaking quarries. Terrestrial upheavals and continent-shifting shakes. Depthless fissures. Gaping chasms. Merciless minerals, unyielding to flesh. Hard truth mixed with solvent soil to nurture the seeds of hope. Nutrient-rich rocks that feed the verdant valleys aboveground.

Air

Nebulous nothingness. Clouded heavens obscuring the clouded fates. Harsh winds crossfiring for dominion. Conspiring currents that rip earth to pieces, suck up fluids like crazy straws, extinguish flames in their cold grip. Tornados and cyclones and hurricanes that ultimately give way to tranquil skies, to a time for healing and rebuilding. Bubbly effervescence in everything worth experiencing. Gentle breezy wisps reminding every living thing to continue living.

Quintessence

The element that touches the soul. Perfection and completeness. Transcendent, unreachable power. The holistic force that permeates all things like (or as) God. Seeing relationships and making connections that weren’t there before. Exists only if you believe in it.
