So much has changed over the centuries, yet much has remained the same. I take stock of history, juxtapose it with the present, and imagine how each will affect the future. I wonder where we are going, how we will get there, and what we will discover when we arrive. In all this, the ‘why’ stands out. Why do we do all these things?
What is it that drives us to investigate the many curiosities of life? What do we believe we are seeing that lends itself to our ever growing need to know more? Is it possible that it is our lack of understanding that leads us to see something that may not serve as knowledge of our existence and purpose?
Whatever the why, the world is moving at a maddening pace. I can’t help but think we need to slow down and allow life to speak to us. Turn off anything that can be turned off, light a candle, and just listen. Listen deeply and meaningfully.
Today I will take a moment to quietly meditate on the past, present and future. Be still with me.
