Sunday Writing Prompt #233 “Creation Myth”

“A creation myth is a symbolic narrative of how the world began and how people first came to inhabit it. While in popular usage the term myth often refers to false or fanciful stories, formally, it does not imply falsehood.” -Wikipedia

This week I either want you to create your own creation myth or retell/share an existing myth. If you are of a more scientific persuasion feel free to share your favorite theories!
