poem I wrote

 .

.

.

WE WALK BY FAITH

.

.

We know, objectively, that we are tiny impermanent beings

In a vast universe

But we must live as if we mattered

.

.

We know, probably, that what we are seeing isn't all of reality

Or maybe not reality at all

But we must live as if reality existed just as it appears

.

.

We know we can not prove with current scientific methods

That there are supernatural forces, magical phenomena and invisible beings

We can summon to affect reality

But some of us live as if we can

.
