What would each of them really say about using 6 year olds as suicide bombers, the treatment of women around the world or justifying wars with religion?
Are the lives we lead shaped by our faith? Or have we shaped religions to justify the lives we want to lead?
" The important thing is not to stop questioning. Curiosity has its own reason for existing. One cannot help but be in awe when he contemplates the mysteries of eternity, of life, of the marvelous structure of reality. It is enough if one tries merely to comprehend a little of this mystery every day.
Never lose a holy curiosity. "
-- Albert Einstein

Dear Friends,
My apologies for the lengthy absence. Once again I've spent a little time searching for answers and spiritual direction. In my desire to motivate and encourage others I found myself in need of motivation and encouragement and questioning everything.
I must admit that sometimes I envy those individuals that know beyond a shadow of a doubt that each day they are walking the path to their destiny. Because for me, it seems that at least every other day a thought crosses my mind that I may have missed a turn here or there.
But enough of that. I'm back to the blogosphere and inspired to try to share more material which will hopefully make you pause for thought.
