Mother Doesn't EXist

In a mother’s womb were two babies. One asked
the other: “Do you believe in life after delivery?”
The other replied, “Why, of course. There has to be
something after delivery. Maybe we are here to
prepare ourselves for what we will be later.”
“Nonsense” said the first. “There is no life after
delivery. What kind of life would that be?”
The second said, “I don’t know, but there will be
more light than here. Maybe we will walk with our
legs and eat from our mouths. Maybe we will have
other senses that we can’t understand now.”
The first replied, “That is absurd. Walking is
impossible. And eating with our mouths?
Ridiculous! The umbilical cord supplies nutrition
and everything we need. But the umbilical cord is
so short. Life after delivery is to be logically
excluded.”
The second insisted, “Well I think there is
something and maybe it’s different than it is here.
Maybe we won’t need this physical cord anymore.”
The first replied, “Nonsense. And moreover if there
is life, then why has no one has ever come back
from there? Delivery is the end of life, and in the
after-delivery there is nothing but darkness and
silence and oblivion. It takes us nowhere.”
“Well, I don’t know,” said the second, “but certainly
we will meet Mother and she will take care of us.”
The first replied “Mother? You actually believe in
Mother? That’s laughable. If Mother exists then
where is She now?”
The second said, “She is all around us. We are
surrounded by her. We are of Her. It is in Her that
we live. Without Her this world would not and
could not exist.”
Said the first: “Well I don’t see Her, so it is only
logical that She doesn’t exist.”
To which the second replied, “Sometimes, when
you’re in silence and you focus and you really
listen, you can perceive Her presence, and you can
hear Her loving voice, calling down from above.”
