Marinette’s Beliefs, Epilogue

I have been exposed now to many things,
and like every curious young human,
I have created and curated my beliefs.
From my experience,
I think this is how it happens…

Before everything, there was the world
And there was no Divinity
When man breathed, Divinity came into being
We named the world Divine
We named heroes Divine
We named spirits Divine..
But we, who had been raised in the world,
Knew little more than brutality.
And so our Divinities were brutal.
When Benalus first set out to change his world,
He sought to bring Kindness,
Compassion,
Unity.
And like all people,
He had the power to shape the Divine.
And like all people,
He had learned what kindness he had through brutality.
He spread his truth of Divinity through all of the world,
And many, many things changed.
And the world became a little less brutal.
But brutality is still the reigning truth of our world,
And so I ask you,
You, who dream of the Divine and it is so,
You, who shape your Angels,
Your Spirits,
Your Saints,
Your Heroes…
Dream with me of a world where they don’t need your brutality.
Dream with me of a world where we stand together.
Dream with me of a world, just a little kinder than before,
A little more respectful of one another,
A little more patient.

Because we are God,
And if we work for it,
Believe in it,
Make it,
We can have Unity.
