I am often envious of those that have a true book-independent faith. The inward faith that needs no rituals or reinforcement. It must be so comforting.
But I have a scientific brain that just can't wrap itself around any of the belief systems that *I* know about. And it's something that cannot be forced, either.
I get what peace I do get from creating things. A nice garden, a bit of stained glass, a drawing, a superbly written bit of code.....
I just need to accept that this peace is 'good enough.'
