I said yesterday, in a funk, that "Magic didn't exist."
When, actually, I usually believe the OPPOSITE!
And then, as I was dropping off to sleep last night, I thought to myself, "Magic does exist. It may just not show up how we think -- expect -- or want. NOTHING IS FINITE."
When you get lost in the doldrums, as it is sometimes all too easy to do, remember that.
Here is the definition of Finite from MSN Dictionary*:
finite (adj)
Synonyms: limited, determinate, fixed, predetermined, restricted, set, predictable
*http://encarta.msn.com/thesaurus_561573649/finite.html
So nothing is:
limited, determinate, fixed, predetermined, restricted, set, predictable...
Embrace life -- and yourself, plodding, faltering, tripping, spinning, spasming or waffling -- and remember we only get to go 'round like this once.
There may be other ways, some other time, better things, but right now, this is who we are, what we are, how we are... Sometimes we can do no better, because we don't know what better is.
That's OK. Why? Because the adventure is the journey. The GRAIL is you.
You are not finite...
