brightlotusmoonI know that for the sake of sanity, we humans need to create things to believe in so we can make sense out of chaos, and that sometimes our creations come to life in amazing ways due to our fabulous powers of creativity, illusion, philosophy, and reason. But I've always wondered if believing in anything beyond ourselves means quietly giving up parts of our sanity to a chaotic, infinite, maddening universe or multiverse, thus allowing us to be able to stay calm and rational if we ever do see the faces of the multiverse in the forms of cosmic forces, divine minds, supernatural entities, infinite patterns, etcetera.
Or perhaps my mind is just so open to the possibility of everything that I can believe anything without claiming that something specific is an ultimate truth. In the end, there is no ultimate truth, just pieces of chaos floating through the collective unconscious that each person interprets to soothe individual uncertainties regarding life, death, and forces beyond control. After all, we humans really want to either be in control or have something be in control so we feel safe and comfortable. Because the multiverse is uncontrollable, unsafe, uncomfortable, and ultimately unknown.
(Pay no attention to the ramblings of this agnostic eclectic pantheist polytheist pagan witch; she gets like this when on a crazy creative streak.)
