Mirror Images of Our Lives
By nature, humans are
naturally attracted to symmetric objects and ideas. For example, when you meet
a person with one ear, we are curious to ask and know what happened to the
second ear. Most animals’ body structures are symmetric. Once we see an animal
whose body structure is not symmetric or what we are used to, we immediately
get attracted to this particular animal. Animals with horns usually have two
horns, excluding hippopotamus, which has one horn.
Symmetric
body structures in themselves are nothing. What is most important is their
functions. Most people have left and right part of their body, or at least, how
they were named, or how we perceived they ought to be. Left and right eye, leg,
nostril etc, serve the following functions:
THEY
COMPLEMENT EACH OTHER: Right part of the body cannot become
left part, neither will left part takes the place of the right part, although
they are symmetric, but they are not interchangeable. When we look into a mirror,
our left side becomes the right side. For them to be symmetric, two opposites
have to lay perfectly alone a symmetric plane. If you put two right together,
they will not both look symmetric, they are not going to complement one
another. In our lives, those who are tall complement the short or average height people. The slim people complement fat or big people. Imagine if the whole world is filled with short people or tall people or better still, we are all of the same height, how would it be? God who is so creative in his love and care, created us to complement one another.
Awesome!
