Momastery shared Allison Anne's photo.
In a mother's womb were two babies.
One asked the other: "Do you believe in life after
delivery?"
The other one replies, "why, of course. There has to be
something after delivery. Maybe we are here to prepare ourselves for what we
will be later.”
"Nonsense," says the other. "There is no life after
delivery. What would that life be?"
"I don't know, but there will be more light than here. Maybe
we will walk with our legs and eat from our mouths."
The other says "This
is absurd! Walking is impossible. And eat with our mouths? Ridiculous. The
umbilical cord supplies nutrition. Life after delivery is to be excluded. The
umbilical cord is too short."
"I think there is something and maybe it's different than it
is here."
The other replies, "No one has ever come back from there.
Delivery is the end of life, and in the after-delivery it is nothing but
darkness and anxiety and it takes us nowhere."
"Well, I don't
know," says the other, "but certainly we will see mother and she will
take care of us."
"Mother?" You believe in mother? Where is she now?”
"She is all around us.
It is in her that we live. Without her there would not be this world."
"I don't see her, so it's only logical that she doesn't
exist."
To which the other replied, "Sometimes when you're in silence
you can hear her, you can perceive her. I believe there is a reality after
delivery and we are here to prepare ourselves for that reality”.
