The Stars of the Universe
God said:
Everything in the world is as you perceive it or misperceive it. There is understanding and misunderstanding and jumping to conclusions. Offenses came into being. Obligation entered the world. Heartache grew. The concept of foe grew. All the opposites were firmly planted. The unwanted grew. Weeds of thought took over. The world became haphazard and hazardous.
It hasn't been an easy thing to choose to leave Earth, nor is it always charming to stay.
Words expanded the Universe while words also cut the Universe down. People were construed in wild ways and struck down, sorted and classified according to who-knows-what.
How brief was life for a human being on Earth, and how long it took.
Time was bowed down to. Space cost money. Water became sparse and charged for. There were all kinds of shortages in the world.
There grew a shortage on Earth of heart. Hearts withered as though heartlessness were a sought-after treasure. Heartlessness was no rarity.
Blame was perpetuated upon Earth. It grew like a vine. It took over the fields. No one could escape the vine of blame although some blamed more or less vigorously.
Nevertheless, the daily miracles of life continued.
I saw beyond what you in the world saw. You forgot to look up at the sky. Wherever you looked, you saw errors, and you counted them. This is how you learned arithmetic, and the world told you that pointing out fault was a good thing.
