American writer Andy Weir wrote “The Egg” in 2009. This animation by Kurzgesagt was released in September 2019 to celebrate its 10 yr anniversary.
I love how Weir paints “you” as an almost never ending work in progress; climbing towards godliness at a snails pace. You’ll eventually get there, but you’re going to make every mistake everyone’s ever made and commit every transgression ever made. At the same time, you are unknowingly the root source of everything positive and every act of LOVE.
It is a beautiful concept that has the potential to promote understanding, patience, and empathy- Everything that is needed in the world today.
Watch the video and let me know what you think.
