Dear Joe:

What you described as your personal spiritual experience fits me very well. This is how I would describe a spiritual experience in my life, if I was to describe one; the peaceful calm of watching a sunset is a desert, comes to mind, the silence and endless space of a desert as the sun sets (and so it is not too hot- when it is too hot I don’t feel calm!)

I also relate to you,Joe, feeling okay with not knowing the answers: and this is exactly where people go crazy, i believe, trying to come up with answers to questions that are impossible for us, as human beings, to answer. As in what happens after death. All I know is what I see, what is evident. I figure there is a lot going on that is not evident to me, forms of energy not defined yet (if ever) by science, colors not seen (UV is one, but I bet there are many not …. defined by science yet, if ever)- I don’t even know what I am talking about, at this point, here on this post, and this is my point: i don’t know.

And I am okay with not knowing. I am humble that way.

Great post, Joe: I enjoyed reading it. Would like to read more!
