The Worth of a Goddess

Take P in to meet her deepest self. Her Goddess Form.

What can it do for me? She asks. Clearly it hasn't registered what's happening. Can she get more money, a quicker promotion?

What use are your breasts we ask her? How much milk can it give? She's not had a baby so the answer's none. Just because they don't give milk, are they useless? Vestigeal?

The first challenge when encountering a deeper force, is to realise it's real.

The second, to realise that just as your mom is more than a dinner-serving machine, God is more than a dispensing machine of favours.
