Someone
somewhere, at
some point.. opened a book. And
as s/he turned, or
scrolled,
in the first
page, imagined.. and
created..
a book..
a story ..
an entire Universe. And the
page wrote:

In the beginning
was
the Word. And
the Word said.. ..
From the beginning basically there is
the Word.. and since then he
says..
..is telling
Stories!
The World was actually made so
Stories can be
told.
In the beginning it
was
the Chaos. (Others
say it was
Time and others
believe is was
the ‘Need’ that came first.
Others say
Eros (Cupid,) or
maybe
the Night;)
And one of the first
Stories starts
with
Gaia, and a
couple of more
gods.
And then ... somewhere
there, in the
same
story,
Death was also
born.
And all the
Stories are
connected with each other.. and after all
the Beginning eventually loses its meaning.
What was, I wonder, before
the Beginning;
before
the Word; before
the Chaos,
the Time and
the Need,
Eros or
Night? Before
any positive,
negative and
balancing force? Before
the Big Bang? Maybe
a ‘cosmic egg?’ (Or
the hen that did the
egg;)
or, as most prefer,
a god, or, why not,
a goddess.
Maybe
the ‘One Suchness’ of Alan Watts or
the One’. Rather
the 42! Probably
Nothing; or just,
there is no ‘before’. Definitely though, there were no
Stories!
‘The ‘Beginning..’
Already basically with ‘once upon a time’ the
Story has
begun.
Stories, as we have mentioned,
are wibbly wobbly, timey wimey..
are interconnected. Because they presuppose, from
the beginning
and maybe by definition,
a past,
a background.. something, that the author can
build the plot on.
Maybe the next generations will laugh at our
idea of one-way ‘continuous’ in space-time, as much as we do
on the
idea of a flat Earth. And
maybe the real
beginning is
somewhere in the middle.
Where the
Story
begins.. And
the
prehistory is build
only
after..
‘After..’
Heavy word the
‘After,’ it always carries all our hopes and
All our fears..
‘Always..’ Heavy word is
‘Always..’
May we
always.. make happy-
no-
-ending
Stories.
