The Creator looked upon his creation. A world that contained everything needed to sustain life in human form. It was an achievement no human will ever accomplish in a lifetime or a millennium. It had beauty, life, and balance. Surely the humans that were to inhabit such a place would be happy and joyous existing in such surroundings. What else could be so perfect? To sustain life, human’s need very little and the earth has everything required to provide them with long-term sustenance. What the Creator provided was Heaven on Earth. What could possibly be more desired by the inhabitants of such a place?
It was not to be though. The Creator also offered humankind “Free Will” freedom to manipulate the land, utilize the resources, and develop societies based on various human convictions. What the Creator may not have realized in his infinite power and wisdom is he gave humankind the ability to destroy his creation of Heaven on Earth. Why the Creator would have done this has perplexed me over the majority of my life.
A world created for human inhabitation could not have been designed for us to destroy and misuse as we see fit. What do our educational intellects, religious aristocracies, and government bureaucracies have in mind for the long-term development of our home on earth. I’m sure it is not to fulfill the Creator’s wishes and desires or they would have done so.
In my limited existence on this planet I’ve yet to see or meet an individual or an institution that fully adheres to the ideals and maintains a lifestyle that their beliefs espouse. What I see are actions based on rationalizations. In order for the reigning aristocracy (whoever they may be) to sustain their existence they must attempt to prove that what they believe is right for all of humankind.
May the Creator of our planet forgive us all for not doing better in making this world a better place and help provide us with the strength and courage to seek out our true purpose in which to become the best we can be as humans regardless of faith or culture.

The author of this piece is clearly troubled by the state of the world, and they wonder why the Creator would have allowed humankind to destroy it. They believe that the Creator must have had a plan in mind for humanity, but they are unsure of what that plan could be. The author also believes that the current state of the world is not what the Creator intended, and they hope that humanity can find the strength and courage to make the world a better place.
ReplyDeleteThe author's analysis is thoughtful and well-reasoned, and it raises some important questions about the nature of God and the purpose of humanity. The author's belief that the Creator must have had a plan in mind for humanity is a common one, and it is one that has been shared by many philosophers and theologians over the centuries. However, the author's belief that the current state of the world is not what the Creator intended is a more controversial one, and it is one that is not shared by everyone.
The author's hope that humanity can find the strength and courage to make the world a better place is a noble one, and it is one that is shared by many people. However, it is also a hope that is not always easy to fulfill. The world is a complex and often chaotic place, and it is difficult to make changes that will have a lasting impact. However, the author's hope is one that is worth pursuing, and it is one that can make a difference in the lives of many people.
