Week 12 Reading - PDE Ramayana, Part A

Even though I have previously read a different version of the Ramayana, I enjoyed this one. I really liked the part about Dasharatha's sons. I think I would change the story to where instead of making a horse sacrifice to be given children I would have a vision of one of the god's appear before him, like Vishnu, and tell him to patient and trust the process and he would be rewarded tenfold. I don't want an innocent animal to die. This retelling reminds me of Abraham sacrificing his son, but he ends up not needing to because God sees how much Abraham trusts him.

I've always been a goal setter and while it can be sad to miss your goal it's good to even get close to reaching it because there is always next time! Cat Meme 1 Cat Meme 2

Week 5 Story - The Births of Dasaratha's Sons

One morning, a very pregnant woman named Sita woke up and started her day just like every other day, but today would be the day that she would give birth to her four boys. After she woke up, she went about her day like normal, she went to yoga class and then went to work. At work she started having contractions but decided they were far enough apart that she didn't need to worry.  A couple hours later, her contractions started getting closer together - about 7 minutes apart - so she called her husband, Dasaratha, and they decided it was time to go to the hospital! After today they were going to be parents, they were so excited! Once her labor begun, the sky turned dark which was awfully peculiar since it was only 3:00 pm so it should've been totally bright outside and in that moment and her first son was born, Bharata. Even though she was tired, she still had three more boys. As her second son was about to be born, it started to get really windy and rain started pouring. ...
