Interplay

Thoughts grow and change over time in the same way that a planted seed forms roots, appears above ground, grows, and changes.

Consciousness is born of uncertainty.

In a completely predictable world, we wouldn’t need it, and the light of consciousness would probably blink out.

Yet although it is uncertainty that awakened us, we find living with it difficult, so we reach for theories that promise an explanation.

By one recent count, there are no fewer than 22 of them in the field of cognitive science.

Tranquility

Silence is like a river of grace inviting us to leap unafraid into its beckoning depths. It is dark & mysterious in the waters of grace. Yet in the silent darkness we are given new eyes. Sometimes it is good to leap into the unknown; good to practice leaping.

It does not matter what we expect from life, but rather what life expects from us. We are being questioned by life – daily & hourly. Take the responsibility to find the right answers to its problems and fulfill the tasks which it sets for each individual.

Lift up your eyes upon the day breaking for you, give birth again to the dream. Each new hour holds new chances for new beginnings.
