The Creator by Peter G. James Sinclair
Man! Thou pendulum betwixt a smile and tear! ~ Byron ~
‘Won’t you tell me the story tonight?’ Seth cried out to his father across the flames as they leapt to lick the frosty air. It was the families’ nightly vigil to sit around the fire, carefully constructed by the father and his son. It kept the family warm for the night.
‘And what story would that be, my son?’ replied Adam.
‘The one about the beginning.’
Drawing from the creation story, Adam teaches his son The Seven Ways of Creation: seven principles learnt from the original story, but also birthed out of his own personal failure and tragic loss.
His son is soon to be married and it is for this reason that he takes him to the sacred place, The Rock. It is there that he places within his son’s heart and mind the keys (recorded on a leather scroll) that will prepare him to succeed where others have failed.
The Creator is a motivational parable built around one of the most famous stories ever known to mankind. Through this creation I provide my readers with fresh insights into the frailty of mankind. And yet at the same time sensitively portray the resilience of the human spirit in the face of great loss and destruction.
The message I share is one that echoes down the corridors of the ages and is as relevant today as it was in the beginning.
As humans, we have each been given the awesome power to create. This is not a privilege to be taken lightly, for we can either create our own heaven or our own hell on earth. The choice is ours.
The good news though is that for every life there can always be a new beginning.
