Post #9

In the beginning order and chaos were intermingled. In the midst of the two was a black egg. I was inside, slowly growing over the course of 18,000 years. When I awoke, I realized that I was trapped inside. So, with my great strength, I hit the wall of the egg and broke through. The egg broke into two halves and the lighter half floated to the sky and became heaven, while the heavier side became earth. When I saw the new world I realized that it was beautiful. I didn't want the heavens to collide with the earth and create chaos  once again so I held it up. For another 18,000 years I pushed the heavens as I grew upward. At last! The heavens were far enough above the earth. Jubilation! For my work was finally finished. Afterward, however, I died of exhaustion. After my death, I was resurrected and bcame the material things of the world. My breath became the wind; my voice, the thunder; my hair the stars of the sky; and my flesh became the earth and the trees. My limbs also changed into the mountains, my eyes became the sun and the moon, and my teeth and bones became the precious stones in the land. The rivers are made out of my blood and the rain comes from my sweat. That is how I created the world.
