I believe
THAT
CREATION happened. CREATION is like conceiving a baby. This
is the beginning.
THEN
EVOLUTION continually happens, like the development of a
fetus during pregnancy.
THEN
TRANSFORMATION occurs, such as the birth of a baby.
THEN
LIFE is shared day by day. Growth, production, reproduction…
more EVOLUTION
THEN
DEATH.
THEN
After that, I do not know.
I do know about apple seeds, apples and apple trees.
From that concept, a sperm is a seed. Children and
grandchildren are the apples of the
family tree. An old apple falls off the tree and decomposes,
dies. New apples continue
to populate the apple tree, earth.
I believe in both creation and
evolution. I believe in imagination,
manifestation and development. I believe in starting something, developing it,
and finishing it. I believe in conception, pregnancy, birth, life and death.
I believe that an apple seed can
germinate, sprout, grow, become a plant, then become a tree, then bear fruit,
produce, evolve and make apples. The apple tree grows and may produce fruit. It
matures and eventually dies. There are numerous outcomes for that tree that was
once just a tiny seed.
Apples grow to maturity, ripen,
drop from the tree, and eventually get rotten. A whole apple laying on the
ground is still alive. An apple can be stored for months, shipped, put up for
sale in a grocery store, get bought, sit on your counter, until that apple is
consumed.
What a life! From creation to
evolution to consumption, the story of an apple.
Creation and evolution is beyond my
comprehension. To satisfy my inner thoughts, this is what I currently
believe. What is marvelous is
L.I.F.E. Creation is like conception. Evolution is like pregnancy. They go hand in
hand. Conception is physical. Pregnancy is mystical, spiritual and fascinating.
