Every great civilization has had its own myth, a cosmic story of how we fit into the universe, a divine story of who we are and where we came from.Greece had Chaos and Chronos, Zeus, Athena and Hercules and a pantheon of other gods. Rome had Aeneas and Romulus and Remus. Western civilization had the Old Testament prophets and stories of the Bible.Now, though many in the world still hang on, these myths are either crumbling or gone to dust.Now a great myth comes forth, bringing forth light and thunder upon a newly birthing world.It is the reason for the existence of the universe itself.It is one person coming to fruition and bloom.
