A Letter From “G.O.D.”….

My Dear Human:

It has been many generations since I visited you. I have to say I am amazed how you have thrived. You manage to push your population to all time high despite the steady loss of food and drinkable water, not to mention your constant effort trying to eliminate each other.

While reviewing your evolution, this invention of yours called Money has been more than versatile. You can’t eat it, but you can trade it for food; you can’t wear it, but you can trade it for clothings. You can’t make a shelter out of it, but you sure can hire people and buy the materials to build a shelter. One of the most astonishing thing about money is that as G.O.D. I can’t even take anyone’s life at will, but some of you have taken many lives with the money you have! As matter of fact, money has become the requirement of living: if you want to breathe clean air, you need money; if you need to drink clean water, you need money. You can even buy freedom with it. I have also noticed that Money has also become the unit of measure: you measure someone’s accomplishment with money; you measure the superiority of a country by money. Like I said “more than versatile”.

Besides money, majority of you have this unequivocal fascination about me. Some of you portrait me as a law-maker; some of you personify me as an emotional punisher; some believe I am a deal maker who likes to trade miracles for their acknowledgement of my existence; some even project me as this commander with an army of angels, gods and goddess waiting to “clean house.” As interesting as your fascinations are, I can’t help to wonder why is my existence and the validation of it so important to you. Will you live your life with 100% confidence that either I do or do not exist? Why? Look, I am as visible as the air you breathe and I am as real as the fire that burns and the water that flows. And I want you to know that I am indifferent about your anger, sorrow and happiness. I have no specific interest in your existence nor do I interfere your existence at all. So think again if you believe I have created all these rules to govern your existence. Think even harder if you think I will punish you for the rules that I didn’t create.

In this ever changing universe, you are a minuscule part of its endless chain reaction. Your creation is triggered by that chain reaction. Your existence is merely emitting the energy that was transferred to you. Once the energy runs out, “you” cease to exist. It is as simple…as that.

Sincerely yours and best of luck,

Not Your Creator
