The Abortion Issue

Monique was recently working on a debate on abortion in her school, now that the passage of the RH Bill is being openly discussed in media.  I have told a few people about this touching story I dreamt of--that a child is conceived when a baby soul begs the Almighty to go down to Earth and come into the lives of a mother and a father.  To which the question of unwanted pregnancies came about--why then are there unwanted pregnancies?  After some soul searching I have come to a conclusion--that in the case of unwanted pregancies, the Almighty sends only the strongest willed, most headstrong and persistent of the baby souls to come down to Earth, and these are the baby souls that overtake and cut in line.  Acknowledging that it's a very difficult and complex issue to address--my advice is for the parent to remember the story--that the baby soul so wanted to come down to Earth that he/she even overtook and cut in line just to be here... Now ain't that sweet?
