Details
-The rabbit smiles whilst thinking of what he would be without life; bones, skin, muscles and fat. Of course it is an interesting and complex subject, but the essential part is missing...
-To the left, the little worm thinks the same thing, except he is a little less elaborate.
-In the order of size, a blade of grass is less than a worm, a worm less than a rabbit and rabbit less than a man. And God is still bigger than all.
Questions
-If we take the word of the book of wisdom, we see the goal of God; to create something which subsists, create to continue.
-There is text that I do not like, concerning an obituary: "It pleases the Lord to remind him of X or Y" As if the Lord took pleasure in this, he who has created things and people so that they continue. It is true that we will one day find all those who have left us for an eternal party, but hey, the Lord does not play with us like puppets. Another word from the Bible says that if the Lord waits, it is so that we have the time to convert. So, he collects us when we are ripe, not when we are green or past our best.
-And I, do I weave my relationships so that they continue ? Or am I in disposable relationships ? Disposable projects ? Disposable love?
