The Garden of Eden.

haha. two great things happened today.
1. I spoke to Hua Peng face to face for 20 mins.
2. I heard Amanda Ho's voice for approx. 1min.

Wow.

Story for today.

The Moroccans have a different perception of Original Sin.

Eve was walking in the Garden of Eden when the serpent slithered over to her.

“Eat this apple,” said the serpent.

Eve, who had been properly instructed by God, refused.

“Eat this apple,” insisted the serpent. “You need to look more beautiful for your man.”

“No, I don’t,” replied Eve. “He has no other woman but me.”

The serpent laughed.

“Of course he has.”

And when Eve did not believe him, he led her up to a well on the top of the hill.

“She’s in that cave. Adam hid her in there.”

Eve leaned over and, reflected in the water of the well, she saw a lovely woman. Thus, she immediately ate the apple the serpent was holding out to her.
