Not privy to inside secrets

“Potential” is a double-edged word, holding promise as well as the possibility of disappointment.

I’m eager to meet God, but what if He is different from what I imagine Him to be? What if the cosmic egg soup flips flavors before I get a chance to savor it?

Do I await my turn for a fresh dose of creativity and a new canvas? I’d rather recreate the story many times than end it forever. It is the last refuge for people not privy to inside secrets.

I’d rather enjoy the egg before a chicken emerges to spoil the show.

  1. Ma’am your six sentence story reminded me of this quote by Camus: I would rather live my life as if there is a God and die to find out there isn’t, than live as if there isn’t and to die to find out that there is.
