A rib. That is what the bible says. I'm not much of a bible follower. I will admit that I've read it a few times to please some people. I didnt know who I was back then. i was merely a child. So reading this book full of people I do not know to please some people that I did know.. In my opinion it was a waste of time.
But a rib I read in one passage. A rib was used to create woman. (Hmm.. then there is my fave myth.) Well God is a Myth as well as Adam and Eve... but My fave myth would be of the first woman created, named Lilith. She was created of the same clay as Adam. Thus making her his equal. But him being a man, lol he thought himself all mighty and just as godly. Tried to make Lilith his pet in a way and when she wouldnt have smexxxx missionary style, Adam ran to God crying and complaining about her. Thus God became angry and banished Lilith to the land of Nod. Where she would forever walk in darkness. In time it is said that she knew men and the devil. Thus creating demon children of her own as well as (my fave) vampires.. Meeting a man named Cain who soon became her companion for a time, she taught him the ways of the dark world and magick. Soon Cain drank from her and became the first vampire, the father of all Vampires. Most say that Lilith was the mother of demons. I know of many who merely call her mother. In the end.. Lilith resides in Nod, which is a land outside Eden... I wonder if this Nod is actually Earth and all its realities. Hm. wonderous wonder isnt it.
... Wow... how this story depresses and intrigues me so. Such a woman to be strong enought to withstand Gods banishment and to live within an alien world. Then to create a world all her own as well as a family. Intriguing.. and sad.. I wonder how many members of the family had passed since her creation...
This is just one story of many to the story of Lilith. <3
Always a Dreamy one
Over and out.
