RE: Faith: Knowing when you don't Know, ya Know?
I love how your posts are so much like a journal. They could be titled "Thinking out loud" :) It's pretty amazing to follow your journey in this way, and I don't think anyone has a blog quite like yours. There has definitely been times in my life where if I were to write down daily what I was thinking it would sound so much like this. Sometimes we thinkers can over-think, and while seeking the truth it can get a bit overwhelming to consider every possibility and even "What is truth".
My husband has been known to say "Who's to say what is good and what is bad?" which I was reminded of by this post. I agree with your take on Jesus and Buddha in terms of balance, and that making them what would be considered good. I feel that everything on this particular plane of existence is striving for a balance, and if we are too far one way or another then we are out of balance and therefore lacking peace.
I wish I had the time to read all of your thoughts. That is probably my biggest complaint about this realm, the shortness of time and how it flies by. Sleeping, ugh, can't they find a way around us needing it? lol!
I have a feeling I end up writing a book at some point. :) I like sharing my thoughts like this as they come to me because it keeps me honest and transparent about where I am at on my journey. If I have to come back tomorrow or a week later and say "I can see how I was wrong about that now" then I never lied, my perspective just changed. Truth is too subjective and to assume or pretend I know the whole truth would be highly egotistical. I think truth is what we know + what we don't know = whole truth.
