Are you God's creation

A woman about to end her life was blinded by a bright light. The power of the light pulled her towards it, and she followed. She arrived at a huge tree growing in a river, birds flying in and out of its branches. She saw the fins of what appeared to be sharks swimming around the tree. Determined to kill herself, she plunged in. The river was three feet deep, and the sharks ignored her. Thunder roared, and lightning flashed, breaking a few branches off the tree and birds scattering in all directions. A voice like thunder said:

You are my creation

Made honest and good from my inspiration

Why do you want to end your life of love and appreciation?

Without consideration

Of the ones who love you despite your reputation

You know you have their forgiveness

They understand that your life is a mess

And they are willing to help you through your distress

Because they believe in your ability to achieve success

Now you must believe in yourself

Give life a chance, don’t tell it farewell

Remember the joy, kindness, and love you shared

Healing the hearts, minds, and souls of the impaired

Giving them more reason to live

Because being alive, they have more to give

Now the table is turned

And it’s your turn to learn

That life is a gift, and you are my creation,

And it is real, not an imitation

Brought here for a reason

No matter the season

You are loved by many who want you to live

Don’t you think you should give,

Back to some of the love, consideration, and gratitude you take

Before you make

what do you think is a clean break

Stop and think! Give life another chance!


Life is a gift. We are all here for a reason. Find yours, and live and enjoy your life.

Thank you for reading this piece. I hope you enjoyed it.
