We must create, but understand it alongside destruction. It is we who decide what is termed ‘creative’ and what is termed ‘destructive’. It is not ‘all the same’.
We make our choices in the face of this knowledge; the knowledge that when we create, something is destroyed. When something is destroyed something new is created.
We cannot escape this: indeed, it is the very stuff of existence.
We are destroyed by creation even as we are created by it. One day the destruction will overtake us. But something new will still be created.
Until then, how will – how do – we take part in the creative process, what part will we take in God’s creation? What will we create? What will we destroy?
It is the question we answer with our lives.
