Coincidence, evolution, or Grand Design. To each their own belief; here's mine!
Whenever I see the white-capped waves tumble upon the sandy shore, watch the moon as it waxes and wanes as its done for eons from days of yore; as seasons change in ceaseless rhythm and planets follow their orbit true , as day and night trail each the other and leaves and trees and flowers renew; the life-giving sun, refreshing rain, the countless shapes and hues of blooms, the butterflies and birds and creatures, the eternal shifting of sandy dunes; the love of parents for their child, the natural grasp of a baby's hand; the love between a man and a woman.... all this can only be one grand Plan. Within my heart and soul I cannot conceive of these wonders as incidental; the rhythm and flow of life and death to me cannot be accidental.
Aberjhani said it wise and true Joyce. And I i agree with what you have written here too. In my poems lately I share what I believe to be beautiful, outstanding love of each other and of Nature. These things exist in harmony, and that is part of a very grand design, by our Father who made all things, and through His Son Jesus, made all things possible. Thnx for sharing this with us, Joyce. Very nice write from your heart and soul. May the Lord Jesus bless you, and those whom you love, and be with you always, and at your side constantly. With much love in my heart, joy to the world, peace on earth, & ((((((((((MANY WONDERFUL SISTERLY HUGGGGSSSS)))))))))), your little sister Barbie,

This is beautiful, Joyce.
And I agree, I get tired of all the pi$$ing duels too. There are still people who believe the earth is flat. They meet once a year. ROFL
A Darwinist myself and a firm believer in Charles Darwin and a studier of those Galapagos turtles, I follow the path of Evolution and the survival of the fittest and natural selection. Thanks for your design, Joyce! In any sense, creation is all beautiful!

A grand design to be sure, Joyce. Now the human element of this design needs some tinkering with.
Our culture has taught us to believe in many ideas which aren't actually real. Exposing these illusions allows us to recover the power to live our lives according to our deepest desires.
Because we have an opportunity to choose our attitude and focus our intentions in the present moment, the world and our own personal lives are a reflection of our thoughts. It is our 360 degree review on how we think. Put simply, our job is to fully
Indeed,there had to be a great designer. Thanks for sharing this. I'm glad I dropped by to visit.
