Today Eve had a dentist, I had yearly physical and dentist myself.
Eve did amazing, she was able to get a full exam done, was very proud of her.
My physical included an EKG... My psych wanted one before I am started on a new drug... Third one to the mix. I pray it brings relief.
Pray......
Religion is such a sore subject for so many, I've never understood why. If one truly believes, why do they need the validation of another? If someone disagrees, that's fine... That's the great thing about America - they can have their opinion, I can have mine, and we can get along and co-exist.
I've lived and worked among Christians, Muslims, Mormons, atheists, agnostics, all. I've found both ends of the spectrum in all... Just seems to be the way people are.
Eve starts school in a couple weeks. I am worried out of my mind for her. Not for her capabilities, she is more than capable. She's different, yes, and while I - as her father - embrace those differences and recognize them for the gifts they are. They are what make her my little girl. I fear for how she will be treated, how the other kids will act towards her. I pray they will be accepting of her. I fear she will be treated poorly, and her endless joy and innocence will fade...
As for religion... I was raised Methodist... I have found after swearing off religion for years... I found my way back, the right way, for myself - within myself. I found I have very strong bond to God, very strong belief. I've found I don't need a congregation, or a person in a fancy robe to justify my beliefs, because it's more than a simple belief
I believe in math, in physics, in what they represent. I also believe that it is entirely possible someone will find a different way, find a new math, a new way to make the numbers work, like nobody thought possible and THAT will be the new belief, the new norm, replacing the old way we thought we knew.
In faith? I feel it... It's deeper than a belief, it's a feeling, an urge almost... A calm place I go when I have nowhere to turn, to rejoice, to seek answers.
I am not preacher, I only will say everyone's path is different in this life. I find the same true for the path one finds God... It's different for everyone, but.... The end goal, the finish line, is the same for us all.
Hope to see you there
