    good thread.

    in our lives there are two ways to live. you either live in a small story or a big story.

    the small story involves living day to day, scraping by, trying to satisfy ourselves with cars, books, money, whatever. which is where i've spent most of my life.

    then there's the big story that we're meant to be living in. so many people miss out on that. but its a great story, one of hope of love of peace, of community. in this story, that void that you feel is filled. life becomes something so much bigger and more mysterious that our little selves, our little stories.

    its in this knowledge that i find comfort and hope. its not about doing this or that. because if you're not content in your current situation, you'll never be content in any situation.
