What is the role of the spiritual, religious, and even philosophically inclined person in a world noisy of bad things happening to people? To remind us that despite the bad things happening in the planet, there is the undeniable mystery of how all of this began in the first place. And sometimes, a remembering of this mystery serves us as we go through the day to day issues of modern life.
There are almost no words to describe the awe I feel when I think about the mystery of existence, of why there is something rather than nothing, of why I am here in the first place and not someone else, of how fragile everything is and how everything could end in an instant.
