Completion

There was nothing but God in the beginning, and it was perfect just like that. Yet, he made a hole in himself, removed his own rib, and made us. With that choice, he created – for the very first time – longing. For suddenly, he wanted. His heart would never be whole again until joined to us. Why would he choose to desire? Why would be abstain from wholeness, fasting from fulfillment, until reunited with his helpmate? So that we could know the pleasure he gave up – the pleasure of completion.
