One more thing...

One more thing I intended to blog about last week but forgot... I don't know why I feel the need to explain my train of thought.. but I'll try : It all started when I was reading that discussion board Chantal pointed me to last week. I was reading posts written by her husband. His profile photo is one of their son as a baby sitting at the computer. (I hope it's okay that I'm blogging so much about Chantal and her family today hehe) Then I started thinking, for some weird reason... isn't it weird that sperm can create life, and this life grows into a beautiful child ? Of course I know that the woman's egg plays a major part in this too... but sperm I saw. I touched. (TMI.) I ... nevermind. Can't you relate to something a lot more when you've seen it with your own eyes ? I know women have eggs. But I can't say I've ever seen one. I've seen pictures of female eggs. I've seen pictures of UFO's too. Anyways.

Then I went outside for a smoke, and this song came stuck in my head : With Arms Wide Open (Creed). Here are the lyrics :

Well just heard the news today
seems my life is going to change
I close my eyes, begin to pray
tears of joy stream down my face

With arms wide open
under the sunlight
welcome to this place
I'll show you everything
with arms wide open

With arms wide open

Well I don't know if I'm ready
to be the man I have to be
I take a breath, I take her by my side
we stand in awe, we've created life

With arms wide open
under the sunlight
welcome to this place
I'll show you everything
with arms wide open
now everything has changed
I'll show you love
I'll show you everything
with arms wide open

With arms wide open
I'll show you everything oh yeah
With arms wide open

If I had just one wish only one demand
I hope hes not like me I hope he understands
that he can take this life and hold it by the hand
and he can greet the world with arms wide open

With arms wide open
under the sunlight
welcome to this place
I'll show you everything
with arms wide open
now everything has changed
I'll show you love
I'll show you everything
wth arms wide open

With arms wide open
I'll show you everything oh yeah
with arms wide open


"We created life"... God creates life. God is in all of us. We create life.... Is there a correlation between the people who have created life and their degree of spirituality ? Do people become more and more spiritual as they become of child-bearing age ? Does your faith grow stronger as you witness a human or animal birth ? Is there a correlation between atheists and infertile people ? Please don't be offended if you're an atheist parent, or an religious child free by choice person. I'm just pondering crazy thoughts.
