Thank you all
The comments were so very thoughtful from each one of you. I was excited with these responses and I have tried to answer them in the write-up for the day. Thanks again for being my muse.

I liked this discussion! I have a great tendency to just accept and wait on the Lord! But I shall now look to see what his prompt is for me for I would not want to miss a thing! But when we commit to our unconditional faith to the Lord it is also a lesson in knowledge and discovery! I loved this segment! The conclusion really impacted me for I found it astonishing! Shelly

I believe, forgive my unbelief.........this is the way I live my friend
It would seem that always humans have grappled with the same thoughts and problems...each generation. and I always say tomyself...beware the clanging bells and the crashing symbols because noisily expressed faith can hide the emty core.

Faith is by definition totally, without question, believing in something without proof . Once one has doubts or "knows" one i is not being faithful. I find it difficult not to question... therefore I was always labeled as one with little faith by my teachers as if one could have a little faith or a lot.. loll It would be like being a little pregnant loll OK my mind digresses but I hope you get my point Great write as always my friend xoxoxo

I am back after a second read........mazza aa gaya! When before the battle Arjuna opts for Lord Krishna & not the large army,his faith in the Lord is complete,yet once faced with a difficult situation he had questions to ask........your point fits perfectly.".Doubt can be healthy if inside there is faith." Another important point you put forth is..."Doubt is a vechile you can use & discard on reaching the destination" Yes,there are no milestones in this internal spiritual journey,sometimes on the way you stop,look,wonder & want to know more or ask! Ek baat aur hai iss rah ki,bhakti,devotion,faith,ishq (kuch bhi keh lo) mein ek daur aisa bhi aata hai jab aap bekhauf(fearless) ho jaate hain,wahan se ek naya safar,nei khoj ka aagaz hota hai! DIL KA KAWAL KHIL JAAYE,KAASH TU MUJHE MIL JAYEE!!

Very intriguing but I wonder why the mind lives in lies abanerjee? If there is a spate of unquestioning reasoning and if the mind refuses to submit to control (of the mind that is), do you think it is living a lie? People talk about mind control and I always wonder at that (I know it is out of this sequence of your wirte so please excuse me.)

i know your regime was changed and you are having a difficult time to adjust to the new regime of the meds. I pray that you become alright pronto, and don't be too worried about reading. Do it at your leisure and when you feel like it. You have always been one of my very precious readers, but first recover fully well. Thaks a lot

I just stopped in because you were on the page I was reading and then I see you have posted! I am plugging away at it tonight but if I do not get to you before I have to stop I promise I will get caught up tomorrow! We have a family get together in the early afternoon but I should be able to read in the morning, if not then by the evening! So sorry I got so far behind but my meds have been very difficult this time around! Shelly
