MERRY CHRISTMAS!
Whatever that means… =)
[i]This year has been the least “christmassy” year I have experienced. Very spiritual, just not christmassy…
Have I lost interest in Christ? Perhaps in some way, but I feel that the lost interest is of a beneficial kind, allowing for hidden virtues to unfold. I feel more at peace than ever before. Unsure, mystified, contemplated, mused over…
Despite a sister-debate, my personal verdict is that I am not an atheist; I actually have a pretty nice relationship with God (whatever that is :o), or the Divine, if that suits better.
The differnece is that I am trying to learn how to hold on to divinity on a now-basis, rather than trying to tune in my emotions with calender dates that meant something in the distant past and we try to emulate on given days of our present lives.
Nevertheless, Jesus was very cool and a nice role model. I wouldn’t have turned into the person I am today without a Jesus in my mind !!
What is my overall point? ??
I forgot. … :rolleyes:
Anyway…
addictions… Perhaps religion is a form of addiction.
Like training.
It gives us momentary “highs”; satisfies us for some periods of time, until it starts hurting in one form or another.
I think religion hurts when you “grow out of it” and become aware of personal limits. I seek treatment out of such addiction from grasping the true meaning of it, and not the smelly surface.
Training hurts when …
I am not sure, yet.
I am still constantly experiencing the momentary highs, which build up tolerance.
And this addiction crashes whenn…
I am hoping for a deadline spotted far away on an infinite time table, because the concept is too perfect in my mind to set limits to.
But like all addictions, when they do occur and the crash point appears, sometimes it is more comforting to return to the addiction rather than run away from it.
I hope I avoid such solution in whatever aspect of my life.
Nobody knows what will happen in the end, all I know now is the importance of finding addictions that unhide hidden truths that have been kept secret for whatever reason there is…
And the bottom line is… nothing ever makes full sense. :o (let alone the above post!!!)[/i]
