The Story Of The face

Once upon a time , I was asked this question , infact over the years many have asked me this question . The question came form a five year old little girl . This was what she asked me , "What happen to your face ?" Well I could have explained to her all of the details , but she was just five years old and here I was trying to think of a way to tell her what happen to my face . I actually wanted to tell her to come back to me when she turns thirty !! But then again , I felt that I ought to tell her . So this was what I told her .
One day up in heaven , God asked me what kind of face would I like to have . So I told God that I wanted to look just right and pretty . Fine He said and it shall be done . During that time , there were many babies being born , so we all had to be patient and wait for our turn. When it was time for us to meet our parents on earth , He would call us and bring us to a special room . In that special room , is where He made us . It's a face, hands and limbs 101 kinda room . A room that Jesicca Alba would love to have !!!!!!!!!!!!!!
It was so busy that day , and He was in and out of that room . Babies were going out of the tunnel by the minute . I was excited as it will soon be my turn to get my face and meet my new parents on earth . The next day I asked God if he had prepared the face that I wanted to have . He told me to be patient because these things takes time and it's a work of art . Okay , if I have to wait I will wait . But you see, most of my friends have gone down to meet their parents and I was getting impatient . I went to see God the next day and He told me to be patient again . I just can't ,I told Him .
He took me and sat me down onto his lap . With a gentle voice He told me that I was going down to meet my parents . I was so excited , I could not sleep that night . He knows that I was quite impatient so He reminded me not to enter The Room . I was called to Him the next day and He told me that ,today, being a wonderful day , He would be in The Room to create the face that I wanted .
While He was busy creating my face , there was a red alert in heaven . One of the angels had a broken wing and needed her wing to be patched up immediately because she was in the midst of saving a little boy . I saw how chaotic everything was and took matters into my own hands for I entered The Room , and wanted to create my own face . Something that I was not allowed to do . I mixed a little bit of this and that . I poured stuff and mixed it up again . It did not go on too well for there was a loud explosion in The Room and I was left with this face.
God was not angry with me , he forgave me and he understood my impatience for He had made me wait for so long . I am now left with this face , but I kinda like it . It makes me special . My face taught me how to be caring , humble and compassionate to others. I feel nice in my own skin , thanks to one above .
