Quiet Pondering within the mind of an adolescent...

My life is not of a day by day recurrence, a multitude of banal misfortunes; it is ,though, a multitude of ways of acting and interacting, of being and living, and of qualities in a relationship with my creator, and thus, his creation.

It is thus near to nature that much of my life still is; hence my story, rather than being replete with statistics of commercial behavior, it is a record of my relations with, and dependence upon the phenomena of the universe - the trees and shrubs, the sun and stars, the lightning and the rain, and my God above - for these to me are animate creatures. Under God, these are more, therefore are extraordinary and special, since upon them, I must depend for my well-being.

There is much corruption in this world, but the good are far from vanishing. The problem, rather, is rooted in a continuing and ever expanding process of despiritualization whereby dimensions of my God and King are eliminated from life, and from being and acting. There is no person immune to the pervasiveness of this process.

Perhaps it may be, and this is my prayer that, through Jesus Christ may come to those people who are capable of understanding, on understanding which must be of the heart, and not of the mind alone. Then they will realize that there is one true God, and that his way, only, leads us to salvation.
