“The beginning of the world”

At the beginning of time there were 3 Gods sitting down at around 4pm in the afternoon, as they usually did, to argue whether to make life or not on the planet Earth, it had water, it had land but it had nothing else, why let any of it go to waste? they thought. “We should create some life, some animals that can enjoy the masses of water that are in the plane” said one of the gods. The other one added “what about the land I believe there could be some species to give it some use there” and lastly “what about the skies? I want life in the sky to look up to”  and so it was settled, each God had the task of creating life; animals for each type of ecosystem in the planet. Fish emerged from the bottom of the seas. Lions and Tigers came out of caves. Birds and Eagles suddenly appeared in the skies and finally all the little insects emerged from the soil. From the skies the gods watched how the earth was coming to life. They watched how all animals were working together, how they maintained a cycle and how it all worked beautifully. Until one God decided to put a new species in an area that wasn’t his without consulting the others. This had never happened before and as it did it opened new doors since every decision was now judged upon and the gods were disturbing other territories, animals were becoming extinct. The God of land decided to remove a species of birds once and so as a protest against this act the God of skies started removing and adding land animals as well. The God of sea wasn’t left behind, he started evolving sea species into land species. The perfect cycle they had created was now broken, Gods didn’t respect others areas and conflict aroused, the world was becoming unhappy. Animal species began to hate each other. Dogs chased after cats, sharks went after innocent fish, and eagles ate small birds. The God of the skies figured that if he’d secretly add a species of honey bees the other would never take it away, he believed that this species was crucial for life on Earth and so he went through with it. 10 years later, one of the Gods noticed the bees “what are those I see, so small and weak” the other than raced to see what was being talked about and said “Those? I can barely see them, who decided upon them?” with fear the God of skies tried to explain that the bees had already taken a major role on Earth and if they were removed it would cause vast damage. The Gods decided not to listen, they were infuriated that the God of skies tried to do something so sneaky behind their backs and decided to remove the honey bee species. Honey bees started dying off, and the Gods started to notice that lots of cycles of life depended upon them and now lots of living things are suffering the consequences of this. After seeing this Gods understood the importance of working together although the consequences already had boiled up they tried to go back and fix it together and are now trying to make a better world for the future.

Message:

1. It’s better to work with people than to work alone, you can achieve greater things by working together.

2. Don’t judge things or people by their appearance or size, everyone is good at something.
