The triangle has 3 sides, the square has 4, and the pentagon has 5 and so on… Ever wonder how and why did the circle lose its side? It was a question that popped up in my mind and so I tried my best to answer myself.
Here’s my thought…
A long time ago the circle has two sides… or maybe we can call it points.
The circle has two points.
But these two points can never be together.
So he cried unto God.
God said – “what are you willing to give up so that those points could be together?”
The circle said – “I am willing to give up my sides, my points, my views my straight line.
I am willing to be curved even though it is painful to be bent just for these points to be together, to be connected forever.”
And God said – “you will lose everything for eternity and eternity will be yours without anything.”
The circle then lose its side, the 2 points became connected and it became round.
And so, ergo, the legend of the circle.
You see, in life, there will come a time that we would be willing to give everything we had, our fame, our career, our life, our own point of views, our pride just to be connected… just to be eternally connected.
‘For what shall it profit a man if he shall gain the whole world and lose his soul? Or what shall a man give in exchange for his soul?” Matthew 16:26 (KJV)
