Why God left man until the sixth day
A group of wise men met together in a castle in Akbar to discuss God's works; they wanted to know why He had left creating man until the sixth day.
"He wanted to get the Universe sorted out first so that we could have all its marvels at our disposal," said one.
"He wanted to experiment with animals first so that he wouldn’t make the same mistakes when he created us," argued another.
A wise Jew turned up at the meeting. He was told the subject of discussion: "In your opinion why did God create man only on the final day?"
"Very simple," said the wise man.
"So that whenever we were afflicted by pride, we could reflect that, in the Divine scheme, even a mere mosquito had priority over us."
Paulo Coelho
There is a reason to why I picked this story to begin my first entry for 2008.
There will be no pictures of the New Year. Neither will there be pictures of my trip in KL.
I didn't welcome 2008 with a good start and 2008 will be a different year for me, sometimes making me feel like I should not have lived to see the New Year.
I spent an hour in Gleaneagles Intan Hospital in KL 3.5 hours prior to New Year due to another drug allergy.
So why this story?
One question of why God created Man on the 6th day, led to many angles of answers.
But what made everyone sure that what the wise Jew said was true and changed everyone's perception, agreeing with him.
Where is God's answer?
Think about it.
