This may sound like a religious proclamation except that I have no religion in mind nor do I have any concept of what/who God could be. Could he/she be one entity or many? Does he/she have any direct influence on my life or simply an overall influence? I have no idea. All I know is that I don't control my existence and I can't simply believe my life is a series of random, Darwinian events, not because I believe this couldn't be the reality. No, simply because I prefer to believe in the existence of God than a random, unknown alternative. I like to think my Dad is somewhere, my Grandma is somewhere, my father-in-law is somewhere and even my dogs are somewhere. I know that's ridiculously optimistic but that's the wonderful thing about the unknown. It's the unknown. And with God, I can just let go and believe that he/she might be the motivator behind some of the decisions I make and the decisions made by others. I can be more forgiving of myself and likewise, of others. They make mistakes and so can I.
