Hello,

Dear ones,

And welcome to today's story.

A parable about two babies in the womb.

Maybe you've heard this story before.

Maybe it's the first time you're hearing it.

It's a beautiful,

Short story about how.

.

.

We never know what's at the end of something.

It's just usually the beginning of something else.

Something ends,

Something else begins.

Something dies,

Something is born.

And so,

This short tale speaks to that.

Of not fearing death and not fearing birth.

Although they are our most transformational and important portals of being human here.

But not to fear what is next.

It touches on the aspect of oneness,

God,

Consciousness,

Whatever word that you like to give it.

And points to the truth of all that is.

It's a beautiful story that I'm excited to share with you.

In a mother's womb were two babies.

The first baby asked the other,

Do you believe in life after delivery?

The second baby replied,

Why,

Of course.

There has to be something after delivery.

Maybe we are in here to prepare ourselves for what will be later.

Nonsense,

Said the first.

There is no life after delivery.

What would that life be like?

I don't know.

But maybe there will be more light than here.

Maybe we will walk with our legs and eat from our mouths.

The doubting baby laughed.

This is absurd.

Walking is impossible.

And eat with our mouths.

Ridiculous.

The umbilical cord supplies nutrition.

Life after delivery is to be excluded,

Surely.

The umbilical cord is too short.

The second baby held his ground.

I think there is something.

And maybe it's different than it is in here.

The first baby replied,

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,

Said the twin.

But certainly,

We will see mother.

And she will take care of us.

Mother,

The first baby laughed.

You believe in mother?

Well,

Where is she now?

The second baby calmly and patiently tried to explain.

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 reality after delivery.

And we are here to prepare ourselves for that reality when it comes.

I hope you enjoyed this short story today,

Beloveds.

Such a beautiful,

Beautiful reminder.

Of what is around us and within us at all times.

Take care.
