The inspiration:
A story:
Each day they went about their chores, the driving value of each action – “purpose.”
He arrived in The Community and they thought him odd. He would wander the fields gazing at the sky.
“Why?” they would ask.
“Because it’s beautiful.”
They would go away confused.
He became focused on an activity, shaping, molding, sculpting.
Ah! They thought. Finally! Purpose!
“No. Because it’s beautiful.”
In spite of themselves they gathered and watched, first curious (that was a new emotion) then in awe at what was taking shape.
He leaned over, blew into his creation, and it stirred.
He smiled, “Adam.”
