original blessing

Mystical beams of light raining down from the heavens, surrounding a crying newborn.
"Original Blessing" is said to be the mystical light descending at the first cry — yet no one has ever truly seen it.
Faith & Philosophy

Description

The Original Blessing is the nominal gift said to be bestowed the moment humanity hatches into the world. In truth, it is a grand ornament designed to glamorize the ceaseless agony that begins with the first cry. Clerics perpetuate its lore and philosophers endlessly analyze it, yet no one has ever truly received its benefits. Thus, the so-called blessing is merely a post hoc euphemism, a superficial veil over primordial suffering.
