When the earth was first made, all
things were present, but people saw
only their isolation from one another
and from the mountains and rivers that
had created them. For a long time,
each creature followed a separate
path, until the first man looked at
the first woman and envisioned an
unity not seen before. From their
love, happiness was created and a
thread soon connected man to woman,
stars to trees, and the tongue of
the ocean to the thrust of the rock.
Some called it nature, others called
it the plan of the universe. But
between men and women arose a bond
of love, unbroken to the present day.
