God, Faith and Rejection

Hans mentioned today that he will get a part in the TVO show for sure. I asked him how?! He said that he asked God and so, he will get the part!!

I had to do the good parent intervention and debug his brain a bit. I asked him this question: what if all the kids who auditioned asked God for a part? There are so many kids and only a few parts! Hans thought over it for a second and exclaimed loudly that if God doesn't give him the part, he will fart on him!! So much for reverence!!

A simple debugging wasn't the solution here; it appear‎ed like we needed an entire brain overhaul! This child has always asked questions about God; even visualized him as a mash up of all super heroes! And yes, he thinks of God as masculine! Is it too soon for him to lose faith in God...whoever that God may be in Hans' brain?!

I don't know why, but I chose to save God.

I explained how his big brother, ASid, did not recently get into a high school program; however, he got accepted into another program later! It is good he‎ got into the second program because his best friend will be there with him!!

Sometimes God does not give us what we want so we can get something better later.

I don't know how much I got through to him. At this point in time, I am praying to all Gods out there - male, female, all religions, all colours! Please don't let Hans be rejected!! ‎But then I am also comforting myself with the thought that if that should happen, there are better things out there for my child. Together, all Gods and Momley, will help Hans find another part...

... no one should fart on God or anyone!
