The Secret of the Rose

"In getting and spending we lay waste our powers"

... William Wordsworth

Just think for a moment …. with that grey matter that we all have (in varying proportions!), those neurons that are made from matter that ultimately derives from the light-giving particles of The Creation - The Big Bang - 15 billion or so years ago.

Thoughts and memories are believed by scientists to be the results of electrical and chemical movements and reactions in the brain - in other words, the restless movement of matter that at the quantum level might have some kind of timeless interconnection.

In this respect even our thinking would seem to be a revelation of the sacred! But clearly it is not most of the time, alas! Something in connection with our freedom of choice gets in the way that clouds this view. Most - if not all - of the time we only see through a glass darkly... But it does not have to stay that way!
