Itâs funny. I can believe something without sound reason. It just seems right, so I go with it. Itâs almost scary sometimes. I base critical decisions on unfounded beliefs. Today, I drove through a green light because I trusted drivers coming at right angle to stop. I did this at least thirty times, believing that people I have never met will do the right thing. I based my life on a belief in what usually happens.
If I had never driven through a green light, I might respond more cautiously. I might stop until no car was approaching on a collision course. Trouble is, we have to keep trucking, most of the time, and only what feels right works in the moment. So, by habit, I suppose, I look at all the reasons for God and for not-God and, finding no clear logical answer, proceed onward with a feeling that has worked on an emotional level. I think sometimes thatâs all we get.
