Dawn Again




So...




I've been given yet another 'new slate'. I have mixed feelings about this... I'm not quite so excited about this one. Not so confident. Actually...a little dreadful.




But I'm not so sure why that is. Can't be too bad, can it? In any case, it's an adventure...an experience. You can never go wrong with too much experience...although, I have this strange feeling like deja vu as if I know exactly how "this" experience will turn out...




Experience.




Is it really necessary in order to fully understand a situation? Or are there other ways...




Does it always have to be a rational, physical explanation? Something that "makes sense"....?




I think people tend to underestimate how far science can go. Maybe the "logical" explanation for something is only logical because you made it logical.




It is said that the natives of america could not see first European ships coming even when they were in plain sight. They say, there was a shaman of one of these indian tribes on the coast in Florida. He would sit staring out across the Atlantic and one day...he noticed an unusual ripple on the horizon. So, curious...he stared at it hour after hour, day after day, trying to figure out just what it was...until one day...He looked toward the place of the ripple and what he saw was unfathomable. He'd never seen anything like it. He couldn't even describe it to his tribe. He brought them to look and all they could see was that ripple...he told them look deeper...and the giant, sailed ships appeared seemingly from nowhere. Because these people had never seen anything remotely like this before, they were unable to see it.

If this is true.... then who knows what could be surrounding us. Or maybe...it could explain all the 'unexplained'. Or maybe this, or maybe that.....But that's just it, we're afraid of "maybe"....it always has to be "know" "know" "know" "fact". We can't just know everything, and we shouldn't try...Where would we be without mystery?
