Spiritualism Vs Secularism


There is some good. Logical good, not spiritual good to begin a relationship with God. More specifically, to begin with God. It means thereafter, life is centered. In the event a broken road takes place for whatever circumstances, reasons or situations, the back tracking of bread crumbs only leads back to myself.

Ps 17:5 My steps have held to your paths; my feet have not slipped.

In secular truth, we find ourselves gulping down quarts and pints of booze to see and find solace. Maybe even spreading our virus of bitterness hate and anger that which is evident in front of us. The nature of a virus is that it goes on spreading and spreading from the next person to the next and it'll never stop. Until of course one person comes along who is either immune or numb or is able to take control of this virus. Then, for all the multiple channels, at least it stops at one person.
One less channel of hurt in the world means one less person hurt in future.

I'm not saying that in spiritual truth we find hope to brighten the day, charity to forgive or faith to endure. I'm saying that for the anchor i dropped many months back, i managed to find my starting point. From that starting point, time may not rewind nor will events back track. Once thing for certain is that the back tracking has led to a place where we're able to see the broken road from the beginning.

I know what went right, I know what went wrong. So what if everything that went right still led to everything being demolished? Still, I realise what everything was - to me. To me only, for it was one sided grounding. That's what matters. If we want to be grounded, we can't be grounded alone. It should and has to be in unison, united grounding.

The moment we're grounded to ground zero, we stop deceiving ourselves based on the point of brokenness at which we once stood. That's the beauty of finding things back.
Many people have said that life will never be the same again. I beg to differ. Life will be the same -yes - just with an added twist.
