Creation Story
In the beginning, there was a Strangeness. It was a Strangeness that could think without words and grow without moving. As the Strangeness grew and thought, it became Universe.

The new Universe, child of Strangeness, had thought and words and and growth and movement. With these, it divided itself into Chaos and Order.

Chaos flowed and moved, without thought or reason, running into and over itself without pattern. Order was stable, unmoving and unchanging. Chaos was free, but Order was safe.

Chaos was given rule over the very small and Order was given rule over the very large and in between, where they joined together, Strangeness lived again. There, also, lived Language.

This Strangeness divided itself into Spirit and Life. Spirit spread throughout all of Universe, but Life stayed in small pockets. One of Life's pockets was called Earth.

On Earth, life divided itself again and again and soon many millions of Life's children covered Earth.

One of Life's children was called Humans. The Humans were given the blessing of Language and the blessing of Curiosity, child of Spirit, and so the humans became known as People.

People, the children of Universe, Chaos, Order, Life, Earth, Spirit (for everything is a child of Spirit), Language, Curiosity, and Strangeness, lived and prospered and, in time, came to understand and to dream.
