Late Night Thoughts

Humans possess remarkable minds, navigating the complexities of good and bad, shaping our world through our choices. We hold the unique ability to transform adversity into opportunity, a testament to our capacity for thought, creation, and evolution. Though fleeting in the grand scheme of the universe, these remarkable minds empower us to grow as individuals and leave a lasting legacy on our species.

As I approach 50 (a milestone soon to arrive), time’s swift passage becomes increasingly apparent. This realization underscores the fleeting nature of our existence within the vast expanse of galaxies, universes, and history itself. Yet, a profound question emerges: even as mere specks in the cosmos, why are we endowed with such remarkable minds?
Perhaps the purpose of these minds lies not just in shaping this life, but in something grander. The yearning for something more, the very question of our place in the universe, is a testament to the power of our minds. Could these minds be a hint of a greater existence, a potential that extends beyond our fleeting lives?

So I leave you with this verse, Psalm 139:13–14 says, “For you formed my inward parts; you knitted me together in my mother’s womb. I praise you, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made. Wonderful are your works; my soul knows it very well”
There is more to this life.
