Life is God's novel. Let him write it. Isaac Bashevis Singer
Perhaps when the Universe returns to formlessness, we as Consciousness will get to view a collage of Life's moments of grace - moments of pure love, joy, triumph, insight, inspiration, passion, courage, tenacity, wonder and beauty that occurred in time and form.
But would those moments of grace really mean anything at all without the backdrop and context of pain, sorrow, suffering, difficulty, challenge, adversity, hardship, fear, ugliness and even hate? What would a movie or book be worth if it were about nothing but living happily and perfectly in non- stop peace and harmony? What would the story of Life and it's awakening to Itself be if it were just non stop light with no dark?
As human beings, we love to create, watch, read, tell and be inspired by stories. We love stories and epics and dramas with hardship and struggle and the victory over it and we love fairy tales with heroes and villains. Maybe this part of us is inspired by our Divine Essence. Maybe Consciousness loves stories as much as we do. Maybe, at the end of time and form, Consciousness, of whom We are all merely temporary expressions, will watch a reel of Life's highlights and be inspired and moved beyond anything that can possibly be described. What a work of Art that would be. How epic. How sublimely beautiful. Joyful. Sad. Poignant. Profound. Inspiring.
