How magnificently you tossed away this God who
plagues and helps man so much! But you did not
and could not toss out of your heart that part of you
from which the God notion had come.
--Richard Wright
Each of us accommodates "the God notion" in our
own way, but we all have it. Although we may not
all worship a great Mother or Father figure, our
spiritual dimension makes us all kin.
To deny our spiritual selves will bring us unrest; our
life's journey is always toward serenity, and
serenity means finding peace within, answering
those searching questions of the spirit. Some of us
will seek answers in many forms, in different
languages, but our quest is as real and as simple if
we stay at home and explore within ourselves.
When we're honest with ourselves, we find this
radiant truth: an authentic search for spiritual
wholeness can be successful.
Let me honor "the God notion" and never use it
against myself or any fellow being.
