Arabic term or phrase: يتخطى
بدأت أسأل: لماذا لا يطير الإنسان ويطير الطير؟ ..."لأن لديه جناحين ونحن لدينا يدان وخمسة أصابع في كل يد"، هكذا تجيبني أمي. لماذا لا يتزوج الإنسان وهو صغير؟ ...لماذا لا يستطيع الإنسان أن يعيش في الماء مثل السمكة؟ ......كيف يستطيع الإنسان الصغير الحجم أن يجعل طائرة كبيرة الحجم تطير؟ ....لماذا يحتاج الطفل تسعة أشهر حتى ينتصب واقفا يتخطى؟ أمَّا عجل جدتي فيقوم على قوائمه ويمشي بعد ولادته بساعة ....أما السؤال المهم والوجودي، لماذا أتينا إلى هذا الكون؟ فقد كانت إجابته في الصف الأول، "لكي نعبد الله وحده". بقي السؤال اللغز المحير، كيف أتينا إلى هذه الحياة؟
