Welcome to reality. If you lived here, you’d be home now.

Pretty, but soon dead.

    Here’s my result:

    ***You Are Warm Nights by the Fire***

    Peaceful and romantic. The best part of fall.

    That’s uncanny. I am peaceful. And romantic. And the best part of fall.

    Fred got it. That’s what I meant. (I did this last year and didn’t quite remember it…)

After a childhood of immersion in my family's religious tradition, I hit college and my first true experience with the question, "why?" Why did I believe as I did? If I thought about it, I had no idea. So, I spent the next ten years not thinking about it.

.

Once I hit 30, I began asking myself that question all over again. A few years later, I woke one day to realize that I simply didn't believe. For many reasons, I am a much happier (and more emotionally healthy) person having let go of god. There are still days that I wish god did exist. It would be a relief to relinquish responsibility to a greater power.

.

But, even better, I can see life for what it is, and work with reality. That's more powerful than any god could hope to be.
