I actually take comfort in the thought that we don't really know what's going on. I mean, I live with eyes open wide, I take in all that I can take in, and try to process it all the best I can. But we are surrounded and engulfed by big unfathomable mysteries, and all the big questions seem to be unanswerable.
And maybe questions are irrelevant. The key is to take it all in. Always. To be open and flexible. Pliable. We can think and ruminate and philosophize, and rationalize. But these are just ways to pass the time. You just don't want the time to just pass you by. You want to plunge into the stream of life. Truly, madly, deeply. And let the stream carry you... to where you are to go.
