Bereishit
In the beginning… The key to life is to ensure that it is always beginning, never ending.
The six days of creation culminate in the birth of humanity. Adam and Eve wished to taste knowledge. Little did they know that when you take a bite out of knowledge, knowledge also takes a bite out of you. Forever did the world change, becoming more challenging, but also more rewarding. Cain and Abel, the precursors to sibling rivalries everywhere. Thus begins the greatest story ever told, the story of the world, the story of you and I, the story how a human being may touch the divine.
