heres a random thought I had while in the shower on

September 2

***********

"Some people in talking of life and spirit/religion

say there's a light at

the end of the tunnel, and its the sun shining

brightly for all to see.

Some say that these people are optimists and there is

no light. They say

that we are all headed towards a death we cannot

prevent, and that the

light at the end of the proverbial tunnel is in-fact

an oncoming train.

I look at life with its ups and downs, and say: It's

both and neither.

I say the light at the end of the tunnel is another

person, the beam of

their flashlight illuminating us briefly as they pass

us by. We stumble

on through this tunnel, seeing flashes of hope, and

never knowing that

the light and the darkness are always with us and the

same: our endless

quest to find ourselves, literally.. in finding God,

he who seeks is also

the searched for. As our flashlight sweeps the

darkest crevices of this

world... let others be your inspiration and

enlightenment, and vice versa."
