Two thoughts

 Two thoughts

Science will always bang its head against the mystery of the universe. The arts will always bang its head against the mystery of the human condition. That’s why we will always need mythological narratives.

I grew up with a God out there in heaven, waiting to judge, waiting to be prayed to, waiting to be adored. This left me confused and uncertain. Time and life gave me a different perspective. If I saw God as authentic and emergent in myself and others, then it was completely within me and up to me to make and measure the life that comes out of this awareness. Finding God is finding myself.
