The world is huge and infinitely complex.
Our thoughts and language are simple.
Is it arrogant to think one's views are accurate,
or just presumptuous?
I see no God.
"I" am a consciousness in a vast network
of neurons and sensors and chemical processors,
alive in a body of billions of autonomous, communicating cells,
some mobile and some fixed.
Often lost in the myths of "being a person."
I live in awe, and wonder.
When I'm in touch with how much I know of my myths
and how little I know of what's truly happening,
when I let go of my dramas and stories and meanings,
I'm in bliss.
