Like talking to a child. I think God is kind like this.

You always capitalise Soul excpet in the first line. Is that intentional?

no, typo! thanks. :)

Awe, that’s cute. God should’ve also mentioned that what you feel is always right. (:

He breathed… I like the ambiguity there, was it the Soul taking his first breath? We are never told if the human child is a girl or a boy. Or could it be God drawing deep breath after yet another successful birthing?

i know, i thought those exact thoughts, Science, as i looked at my 6 characters left.. and I decided to leave it ambiguous. I was going to make a comment with MY intention, but then, didn’t.

I’m commenting because it’s my duty.

Cute take on the “before life” concept.

yes it is!

I liked learning about how the soul was brought into the world. Great idea.

Agreed that ambiguous is best; we all have our opinions. I loved the piece. It was tender, cool, open and simple. Exactly like our culturally developed idea of the hereafter. ’Course, I guess this is about the “heretofore”.

thanks beagle and christina!

A “Heavenly Piece” no typo. Very well written Elsha. Reminds me of how nice tales like this are told to children at Christmas. They seem to have that nearer my god to me feeling

I thought that this was beautiful.

:D

I love your writing, Elshanor.

This is lovely. A wonderful mix of science and supernatural. I think my favourite bit is the description of finishing the DNA.
