In The Beginning

There is always something around the corner or over on the other side that people are looking for. Do they ever find it? Probably not. They are just looking. They may find something but the mere fact that they are looking is a testament that they haven't found what they are looking for. Where do they decide that they have found it? They don't. So what is the point of it all? There is a point but nobody knows what it is. That's just the way Reality is. Go with it.

We are frequently faced with things we had no idea of at an earlier time. Are we surprised that we have to go through it all. If we are, we shouldn't be. All the signs were there for us to look at. We just didn't bother to register it and put it on our list of possible things that would come up in the future. We know that it happens or could happen but we couldn't bring ourselves to really come to grips with the possibility. Now, when it does come to be, we have to be mentally prepared to whether the storm of contention.
