The Creation of the Universe
Once upon a time in the land of the Gods and Goddesses, there were a discussion about the next thing to do after creating the Universe. They decided to create the stars however the universe was still an empty place, so they formed the planets. But at that moment, even the universe was full of stars and planets, there was something missing, so one of the Gods chose one of those planets the had created, the Earth, and he changed it radically, so it can be unique and different from the rest of those.
He started forming lakes and rivers and oceans; forest and deserts and jungles. But he and the other Gods looked at it and they thought it was still empty so he had the idea to complete the creation by putting there living things, water animals, air animals, and earth animals.
The Gods created, fish and sharks and whales, so they can lived happily in the lakes and seas. After them, the Gods created all kind of birds, blue birds, red birds, eagles even toucans to living happily and flying across the sky. At the end the Gods created the lions and tigers, the cats and dogs, the bears and monkeys, the wolves and foxes, to lived happily in the jungles, forest even tundras they had just created.
They thought from that moment, the universe won't be an empty place any more, in it are living things to enjoy what they had just created. The creatures would live in peace and harmony, and they would not have any problem, because they thought they gave them everything to be happy and live gracefully.
All the creatures were together, knowing each other for the very first time, everybody except one animal, who was a lone in the middle of the forest, murmuring and complaining. “I hate this color, I hate this place, and I hate my form.” But One of the Gods heard the animal and came to the world to visit him. “Don’t get angry, we can fix it. I'd can change you.” the God said.
After several changes, the animal was still uncomfortable about his appearance, everything in general and he got mad. . He leaved the God alone and this made the God furious so he decided to give the animal a lesson, he'd converted him into a completely new kind of animal.
The next day, the animal woke up, and he realized he had changed again, but this time was different, because he had no feathers, and his fur was almost gone.He was ugly indeed, he became ashamed of his shape. He ran away from his home, he didn't want the other animals look at him. Days later, the God appeared, and told him that from that moment, he had to work hard to survive, make his own clothes and build his own house, and that from that moment he can not talk to the other animals, because he would speak another language.
