Since Our Childhood

Since I was small, my family always told me stories of the creation of man and the stories I've just read. It is fascinating all the details I had missed, and the different ideas I have from my childhood and now. Concepts are understood differently according if you are listening or reading them, and that was one of the things that impacted me more, I got a totally different idea of what I had a few years ago. Even though I recognize the same points of the stories, I now have a completely different interpretation. When I was younger, I just believed everything told was wonderful and that Adam and Eve had done a mistake, but nothing else. And with Noah, I thought it was a fantastic idea to have all the animals in the ark.

From the story of Adam and Eve in Eden, I think people are usually too intrigued with what is prohibited. You might recall this to Pandora's Box, when people are interested in something forbidden, and the do it, many bad things can occur. With one simple situation, the rest might change in a significant manner, in this case negative. "Unto the woman he said, I will greatly multiply thy sorrow and thy conception; in sorrow thou shalt bring forth children; and thy desire shall be to thy husband, and he shall rule over thee."(ch3. Line 16) This was one of the consequences that had to be faced upon others and not only to Eve, but the serpent and Adam also had consequences that civilization has had to face. After facing the consequences, God still had hope, as in Pandora's Box, he had hope with Noah.

This story was a very important one, as this one describes the hope that God had on Noah. He was sure that Noah would give him a great satisfaction with his request. Noah was a god follower and obeyed everything that he was asked to do. He was the only hope that God had to try to make Earth a better place to live. Without so many people that want to be equal with the gods, and want to know everything. It's very important that humans didn't have the opportunity of achieving this, because if they knew everything, life would have no purpose, it would be perfect. Many people would argue that a perfect civilization would be great, but I consider that you should always try to improve and mistakes are great part of our lives.
