Woman Thou Art Loosed: On the 7th Day Page #2

That's not good to think about.

Well, then make up your own prayer.

Just remember, what's important is that

you know that God is

always watching over you

and he'll never let you down.

What happens if you let God down?

He forgives you.

God loves us no matter what.

Okay-

God bless everyone. Amen.

That's it?

It seemed to cover everything to me.

Hey, sleep tight.

Don't let the bed bugs bite.

And if they do?

I hit 'em with a shoe.

And make those bugs...

All black and blue.

- All right.

- Good night, Daddy.

Here's your baby and your blankie.

Good girl. See you in the morning.

Ooh, baby.

Mmm, you like it when I'm naughty.

Uh-huh.

- You are my angel though.

- Hmm.

That's not what you called me a minute ago.

That's right.

You know,

earlier today I kept thinking about...

When I was making that

crawfish, my mom kept

- running across my mind.

- Mmm.

I kept seeing her

sitting there waiting for me to

pour 'em out.

I don't think you ever

get over losing your mother.

I think you just learn to live with it.

I don't think it was

ever the same after Katrina.

After she left her house...

And you remember

how much she loved this city.

Mmm.

I still think she died of a broken heart.

You are such a good man, David.

I know my mother would have loved you.

What are you saying?

Your old man wouldn't have approved?

Oh, stop.

I think he would've loved my crawfish.

How could anyone not love you?

- Mmm-hmm.

- Mmm.

You want seconds, don't you?

Come on, come on.

- Don't let me hold you back.

- Mmm!

- David.

- Hmm?

I think I heard something.

- David.

- Hmm.

Get up. Come on.

Listen. Listen.

Daddy.

I thought you'd locked the door.

I had a bad dream.

The boogeyman was in my closet.

You know I wouldn't let

anything happen to you, right, darling?

Right?

- Nothing.

- Come here.

It's all right, puddin' pop.

Come on. You can lay here with us.

What?

She can lay here with us.

She'll be all right in her bed.

Go to sleep. Go to sleep.

No, Mr. Williams,

that is incorrect, but nice try.

Listen, people, the question is,

does the human condition change

if humans themselves change?

So what's he lecturing on today?

One of my favorites. Karma.

Fearing one's demise

serves a greater divine purpose,

namely as a motivating factor

to keep our own behavior in check...

Right.

If man believes

that there is a karmic reckoning,

be it God or the cold,

harsh principles of cause and effect.

If he believes this,

then it forces him to question the choices

he makes in life and is that

not in and of itself of value?

Ladies and gentlemen.

Now you can also

look at it from the other side

because you can argue two points...
