Its not easy -Reine Sadek
That if you want to make an apple pie from scratch, you must first invent the universe, when he says from scratch he means from nothing. He means from a time before the world even exists. If you want to Make an apple pie from nothing at all you have to start with The Bing Bang and expanding universes, neutrons, ions, black holes, suns, moons, ocean tides, The Milky Way, dinosaurs etc. You have to start at The Beginning. You must invent fire. You need water and seeds. You need chemistry and biology, for a really good apple pie, You need The arts. For an Apple pie that even lasts for generations, You need The printing press and The Industrial Revolution and maybe even a poem. To Make a thing as simple as an Apple pie, You have to create The whole wide world.
Short story and a moral -Reine Sadek
Let's hear the story; One day, a rich Dad took his son on a trip to show him how poor people live. They spent time on the farm of a poor family. On the way to home , Dad asked his son; How poor they are? What did you learn from this trip? Son said We have one dog, they have 4 of them. We have a pool, they have a river. We have tube-lights at night, they have stars. We buy food, they grow theirs. We have walls to protect us, they have friends. We have television, they spend time with family and relatives. Then he added: Thanks, Dad for showing me how poor we are….! Moral of the Story: It is not about money, or clothes, or gadgets, or cars, or a big house that matters….its simplicity, love, compassion, friendships, values, the family that makes our lives rich.
