    When the world was new So much about my life has been about religion, from what god wanted to who god was. I remember comments from my parents that the world was created by him and then destroyed by his creation. Yet with all of it's beauty I wondered, what did the world look like when it was new and not set in the condition I was used too ? Something I pondered and yet never imagined or understood. Perhaps it was full of more love and caring people, people who did not judge me for not attending a meeting or answer correcting on thoughts I knew I understood. Perhaps it had more time to enjoy nature, instead of spending so much time in a car group talking to my neighbors. Perhaps it was more open, with questions being asked and answers being exchanged. All of these things were always running through my brain, yet because I was born in this world, I could never understand or see what the world looked like, when the world was really new. Then one day I questioned to much and my little thoughts became big ones. I wondered to many "what if's" and thought to many "maybes" and soon I was no longer in that old world of old. The world with all the control on this issue and that, with judgment for this and scorning for this or that. I stepped into a world that was free from those thoughts, where I could think for me and wonder about anything I want from "why are we here" to "Is one religion really where it's at." So as I set on the outside of the old and looked at my life, and asked the question of old once again. What did the world look like when it was new? It looked as beautiful then, as you wanted it too. For me the world is not a place of judgment and guilt. No the world is a place of small things to be seen, answers to be explored and thoughts to be exchanged. The world is new, my world the one I mistakenly thought I knew. My thought Dragon
