This is a very well written message. I do pray that this message would get out across the world. It would be wonderful if it could. Humans have such huge egos that they refuse to see what's right in front of them.

You should fashion a wooden yardstick, grasp it firmly and whack the first person to step out of line. You should continue to do this until the message is received and behavior is affected. The world's salvation my rest on you and your abilities.

Wow, Terry, what a way to get people's attention. You have presented some excellent ideas and pointed out some major flaws with society as we see it. Definitely we are not sustainable at this point. Message delivered, what next? Great question to pose.

Take care,
Rhonda

This is very well written, and it was a joy to listen to your writing, genius, outstanding, and I appreciate the care that you take with your sentence, structure, your paragraphing, and your punctuation because all of these create a very good story to listen to. Since I have vision problems that helps me a great deal as I have to listen to stories that people write. Patricia.

Terry, what I got from this may not be exactly what you wrote. My interpretation of the message is: We are all creators in our own way in that we create our individual life situations as a result of our individual behavior and decisions. We are not 'THE CREATOR', but rather an appendage of HIM. An analogy I like is: much as a drop of ocean water has all the same ingredients of the entire ocean, but none of the power until joined with the source.

We are all Creators, but none of us are God.

Anyway, I love this post and it shows an entirely different side of you and your ability to share it. Congrats!!

"Change, you're in charge and headed for disaster."====I do think this sentence needs a little punctuation to get across what you mean. Maybe, "Change! You're in charge and headed for disaster." A message to every person - right.

Such a powerful and important message delivered as only you could. With tongue in cheek humor, and humble attitude. Your message got me thinking. This was eye opening and apparently, something that's been on your mind as well. Very enjoyable. Gretchen

Good luck with your new job Terry, it's not going to be an easy one!!

Just brilliant, I loved it!

My favourite lines: "You're familiar with a Zoom call?" and "...but tag, you're it!" They really did have me laughing out loud!

Well written with great imagination and a humour that I just loved. Thank you so much for sharing and the very best of luck with your task, I think you'll need it!

This is a neat story with a message we all need to here but I sure everyone on that zoom call is still freaking out about the creator not being God. Maybe He should have omitted that bit of information. It is very distracting. I sure He get back to you if his experiment doesn't work because have been chosen to save the planet. Well written, I like it.

Interesting and different. Not quite sure how one can be the Creator of exceptionally complex universes without being God, nor how or why he would distance himself from his creations. However, your story was imaginative, and tells an important message about looking after the one planet we are meant to be stewards of.
"That's the message: change we are in charge, and headed for disaster?" I found the above sentence difficult to understand. Did you mean: "Change! We are in charge, and headed for disaster!" ?

It's interesting, in the beginning, but I think things get a bit circular. I would recommend trimming it down. It gets a long for this concept.

notes:

"Wait a minute, who are you? And why are you a voice in my bedroom at 9:30 on a Thursday night?"

-Not sure if this is a "story" or not, but if one suddenly heard a disembodied voice, would this 'really' be the reaction?

The Creator doesn't make me God. I didn't create myself."
-Wouldn't make him... a Creator then? If he didn't create himself.
