As I type this post I am sitting in the cafeteria at the college waiting on my wife. Its a Friday so everything is winding down here and its fairly quiet. This is my first post on my, new to me, laptop computer(I got a real good deal on it from the local computer store).
School is so far quite engaging for me this semester. Its funny that in my last semester in a community college I would have the most interesting classes. Perhaps it is simply the light at the end of the tunnel. Oddly enough I am even finding my Anthropology class interesting, even though my instructor is a fanatic when it comes to the myth of evolution. I guess in light of my dive into Philosophy I am seeing evolution as another of humankinds thought processes. Perhaps if it wasn't so powerfully tied with nihilism it would be better understood as an instrument of creation. But alas, we are creatures of extremes even if it obscures wisdom and truth.
Today is my youngest daughters birthday. She amazes me at what a good soul she is. She is so intelligent and happy. Best of all, she is creative. She doesn't know it but she is now in the best time of her life. She is innocent and open minded enough to learn about whatever she finds interesting. It is the sad fate of the human condition that we grow out of, and leave behind such a blissful existance. Clearly this is why Christ calls us to be like a child.
