Myths and Hypothesis

Myths and hypothesis evolve through time. From the Garden of Eden and before … Until the undetermined end, men indulge themselves. Speculation upon speculation, ideas arise and fall. Hoarding the past *like shards on a battlefield. **Dreaming, deliberating, debating ideas…seeking truths. Reckoning the present in terms of antiquity. Archaeological finds ***dance upon the past. Today languishes into a myriad of tomorrows. Wisdom flickers like a firefly sparkling the dark. Illumination hides amid darkness of yesterday. And wisdom is veiled like the sun during a solar eclipse. Age upon Age; culture upon culture; faith upon faith, Man has sought to explain his existence. Thought upon thought, experiment upon experiment Man’s mind methodically meanders amid collected facts. Between the Creations, the Big Bang, and the appearance of life… Beyond the imagination until the apocalypse Men dissect creatures, theories, and facts…interpreting. Weaving a web of logic to bind the beginning to the soul. Hoping, discovering, discerning, deciding, debating…forever. And thus, continues, the myths and hypothesis of man.

Thanks, Debbie. I'll try to enter your next contest, too. We have put the baby in daycare. Once he started walking and climbing, he was getting too many bumps and bruises. We couldn't quite keep up with him and he couldn't quite keep his balance. That boy is so smart. He is saying a few words correctly and he's a Houdini-kid that can get out of almost any restraint. Even the car seat once. It's been busy! I am looking forward to writing more and gardening more, too. Thanks for choosing me as a winner. Big Smiles, Dane Ann
