Remythologizing the Myths: Genesis

Chapter One continued from 3/3/17
Beauty, Truth, Goodness, Unity, Diversity
Inspired by Genesis 2
... the two children would always return to the center of the valley and God's table, once the sun began leaning into the horizon.

Days and years passed. The seasons were spectacular but mild in the valley, and first the girl and then the boy began to grow up. They became better friends every day and rested secure in their deep friendship with Ama, as they called God. At God's table they asked good questions and came to understand the names and natures of all the living creatures in their valley. They confidently hiked all the surrounding hills, being careful each day never to venture too far, so that they always kept their promise to return to Ama for the evening meal. And they began to think about finding their own names.

This is the third installment in a story-series focusing on Genesis. I intend to offer a paragraph or so each week.
