P’tah and the Cup

Once it was said to the God P’tah, Creator of Things and All Things, eyes of the Universe, maker of little miniatures:

“Just as you must have an empty cup to fill it with tea, so must you have an empty Universe to fill it with meaning.”

P’tah nodded.

P’tah shrugged.

P’tah placed a little cup carefully in somewhere he judged a good spot,

Then into it He began pouring the Universe. He poured in a little and then a little more and then a flood and then an ocean and then into the Universe he poured another Universe, and He said:

“Make more. The Universe finds room.”

The Universe was not exactly sure this would always be true, but it was too busy enjoying the Universe to care.
