Cry in the Dark

I asked God if there’s a reason humans like to sit around fires and stare into the flames. He told me that he always figured it had to do with remembering happier times. So I had to ask, “What happier times?”

He said that before we’re born our souls tend to spend a lot of time drifting through space. Until they’re plucked out and attached to a new born baby, our souls tend to stare into the sun, because there’s not a lot else that’s really interesting out there.

So what made those times happier, I asked him. He told me just not being attached to a body is pretty good.

After all, he told me, didn’t it ever occur to me that there’s a reason new born babies cry?
