Why Man Was Created

I have often thought
Why did God create the universe?
Surely not simply to be adored,
for what do I want of my own
Children?~ no need to worship me,
just go out and be good citizens
of the world, and if anything, have
more, and do greater things than I -- 

Then I realized, God is all Love. Love
that is Love. “I Am” – But love always
needs an object and referent. One needs
something else if to love.  Whether external
or internal (both substance-realities) – 
One cannot love without a reference independent
of one's self. God created us, for need to love
another. The only way He could be, Self-fulfilled.

"Let us create man in our image..."
A singular and cooperative all in One.
