Metaphor

"Spirituality is
Applied poetry.
Metaphysics is
Applied metaphor."

Einstein is supposed to have said that imagination is more important than knowledge. He also is credited with reminding us that there are two ways to live our lives: either as if everything is a miracle, or as if nothing is. My faith is but a daily choice in favor of each of the things he clearly favors. I will not exhaust myself trying to prove--to myself or anyone else--the truth of such realms. No human person or body of people has a monopoly on that. I can only make headway, then leave a legacy. As long as I am honest and sincere, I can learn, and invite others to learn with me.
