And how it’s a never-ending game of revelations. <br /><br />But I was thinking about the night sky instead of the sun, and how we can never really see all the stars in the sky. In the day time they’re there, but not visible to the naked eye. And at night, depending on where we are (city/country etc), we can see more or less of them. Same goes for bad weather, or if there’s an eclipse etc. We don’t always get to see the dazzling beauty of starlight.<br /><br />I don’t see our journey to enlightenment as linear or like ‘levelling up’ in a computer game (haha). <br /><br />But we definitely know the light is there. It’s just… how much do we get to see? Well, it depends on where we’re at.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6384782695584867387.post-4851745404361379202009-08-15T16:04:19.003-07:002009-08-15T16:04:19.003-07:00"I understand that the sun is hidden when I c..."I understand that the sun is hidden when I can't see it, but when it is gone from my direct experience it's almost like I forget to believe in it.
