this is the girl from the story while she is still on mars feeling sad
The creation of mankind
The idea that we earthlings are the only living creatures in the universe is, in my opinion, self centered and incorrect and I think the creature that once lived on mars would agree with me. She would probably be upset with us for believing that, considering the circumstances.
A long time ago there was a single life form who lived on mars all by herself and she was very lonely. She was so lonely that one day she started to weep as she stared down at earth and wonderd if there is something better there, as her tears hit the earth she noticed that the dirt and tears blended together into a clay that was strangely alive. Her heart rejoiced for she had now found a way to ease the pain of her isolation. She tried and failed many times to make anything that even slightly resembled her with this strange new substance.
Even though they did not look like her she still loved them and enjoyed there company but alas, she could not make them live for more than a few moments, but she still continued to create them to entertain herself. One of the creatures that she created was so beautiful that she wanted desperately for it to survive.
As it began to suffocate she tried to breath into it and make it live and for a while it did. But as soon as she stopped to catch her breath it died. She realized that it couldn’t breath in the atmosphere of mars (we now know that it is mostly carbon dioxide) but for some reason it could breath what she exhaled (oxygen).
She decided that she would create two of them and take them to another place because of how sad mars made her, And she would leave them there. She decided on Earth because she had always imagined something wonderful there.
The next two creatures that she created were just as beautiful as the one she had tried to save and she knew that these were the ones she wanted to take with her. She knew they would not be able to survive if she did not ensure that they had something that would produce what they could breathe. So from her hair she created plants that would serve the same purpose for the creatures as her breath had. With these plants and the two creatures she headed to Earth. When she arrived and started arranging the plants she realized that the plants too needed a means for survival. So from her own blood which she willingly gave, she created the waters of the world. And as a final sacrifice, she set her own heart in the sky as a source of light, which she deemed the Sun. And with these sacrifices given she died.
The creatures and plants which she had created reproduced and evolved into all that we have today and all that we will ever have. Some adapted ways to live in the rivers, oceans, and streams, and some took to the skies trying to reach the Sun and the true heart of their world. Still more of them where content to live there lives safely on the ground under the shelter of the trees and plants, and others dug into the Earth and found their nourishment there.
But no matter where they ended up they where grateful to the one that had given everything to them. Somewhere along the line we humans lost sight of that thinking that we where the only ones that ever were, And I hate to think about what could happen if we keep this state of mind.
this is her after she has given up her hair and is ready to plant the flowers
