Week 11: "God Only Knows"

Week 11


“Coincidence is God's way of remaining anonymous.” 
― Albert EinsteinThe World as I See It


Shenanigans aplenty.


"I call architecture frozen music." 
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe 





In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth. Now the earth was formless and empty, darkness was over the surface of the deep, and the Spirit of God was hovering over the waters.


And God said, “Let there be light,” and there was light.




"All men dream, but not equally. Those who dream by night in the dusty recesses of their minds, wake in the day to find that it was vanity: but the dreamers of the day are dangerous men, for they may act on their dreams with open eyes, to make them possible." 
T. E. Lawrence 










Day 1: Creation of Day and Night




"A dreamer is one who can only find his way by moonlight, and his punishment is that he sees the dawn before the rest of the world."

Resolution 4: I will fall slowly, when unable to fly.

"I pushed you cause I loved you guys 
I didn't realize 
That you weren't having fun 
And I dragged you up the stairs 
And I told you to fly 
You were flapping your arms 
Then you started to cry, you were too high."
Ben Folds



Day 5: Creation of Fish and Birds

Resolution 5: I will get more Twitter followers!




"It may be hard for an egg to turn into a bird: it would be a jolly sight harder for it to learn to fly while remaining an egg. We are like eggs at present. And you cannot go on indefinitely being just an ordinary, decent egg. We must be hatched or go bad." 

C. S. Lewis 
Resolution 6: I will try to get less egg on my face.
