Good question. Taking up space, breathing. Living. But maybe you can be doing these things, and still be invisible, unknown to people, and maybe in a sense then you don't exist. Maybe you only exist if other people see you. Maybe we only exist because we acknowledge that we exist, and we make up everything around us, maybe we make up our world, or maybe the world makes us up and we only exist because of that. Sigh......the many possibilities and endless questions.
these six words leapt out from the sermon I heard in church this morning. Thanks Pastor Jodi. (I attend a Baptist church which has two lady ministers on the pastoral team.)We can live with peace and joy no matter...
