Dancing on razor's edge, on one bare foot!
Look at this universe and you know what I mean. You are only dancing on bare foot on a razor's edge.
You have not got the faintest idea what'' going to happen to you in five minutes time. A Japanese tsunami strikes or a Katrina hurricane betakes your town, or even a mild earthquake of 10 magnitude on the Richter scale, everything is possible.
Every day fifty thousand miserable humans disappear, let alone how many rats and mice and cockroaches. Every day one hundred thousands of little innocent babies come into the world, only to be monsters later on. You are made to live and made to die. You have a short lifespan to prove yourself. Then you make your reverence and take a one way ticket to the moon.
You are given a brain, for most, eyes to see or shut, ears to hear or be deaf and heart to realize or not. You are put personally facing this world, this big universe, in which you have no role except to watch and observe. Then figure our with your genius that there must be a powerful controlling, God, sources of your knowledge, as He is sourced of your life and death.
You are forced to think, otherwise you do not exist, according to Descartes, but he was a Frenchman and you know Frenchmen, but nevertheless you have to think, whether this makes you exist or not is another thing. French people like to mix up carrots wand apples and call them cucumber.
He most important thing is to capture the wavelength of your life. This is why you are here for. You have some time to live, make it up, live it up, and then that's it folks. By thinking, you might wave aside the tedious and maybe a worn out subject, of what are you doing here.
The reason of course that might not make heads from tails. But as you are well equipped for such subject, it might worry you a little, not a lot but just to nag your life from while to while. The insistence of such a subject on your mind is the common lot of everyone. No one escapes the question and forget it altogether.
Some, very wise people, decide on the issue very early in their lives but go on asserting it to themselves as well as others all their lives. As if they cannot depart from the subject. Is there a God or is there not? Classic! For those who spend their lives working making their living and hardly survive and there are lots of them they have no time to deal with the question at leisure. But those who have time and leisure they think about it once every while.
But both creatures judge God before God judges them. They make their convictions in response to whether or not God exists, and then they pass on to the next daily subject of shopping, or dating a girl or a boy, how to find a job, get married and have some progeny, get a lot of money. All are envisaged under the sun.
But from time to time, meanwhile, you look at yourself and at your life and wonder, be you a scientist or philosopher, for we are either of the two. Two categories of people with two reflections. It is not forbidden to be both at one and the same time. The United States' constitution has no articles or amendments to the contrary.
If you happen to live elsewhere, not in the civilized world that is, according to humble Americans, then you have beter chance to make up your own convictions without the personal intervention of Obama, Bill Smith, or even Frank Sinatra.
But whether you live in the civilized world or in the third world you have to dance on one foot on a razor's edge. Believe or disbelieve, that is the question, in God that is. Then once you have made up your mind, whether you are an Einstein or a Queen, Elizabeth or a Jintao, you have to make up your mind whether you like it or not, like everybody else. Sven billions of us, seven billions of believers and non-believers. Most belong to the latter and the former is very meager in number.
But you are dancing on the razor's edge in you decision. Don't slip, you might split you foot and your whole body with it. A Lot did and now it is too late. See what I mean!
Dance with your life at stake! No other opportunity is given after! You have only one opportunity to prove yourself!
