Hmm... trying to restack this with a quote and the option won't show up.... other articles working as expected.... just mentioning in case its a setting I'm unaware of.
That so beautifully describes my experience. If I purposefully meditate, seeking a sense of the presence of God, it never comes (though sometimes I get very relaxed). Every once in a great while, when God is the remotest thing from my mind, I feel a tiny jolt of God playing with me. But then I start thinking about it, dwell on it, and a thousand reasons come to mind why it wasn't God, was just chance, meant nothing. Every so often, when my mind is just adrift, I suddenly feel at one with what is around me (usually nature). But if I try to feel that way purposefully, it eludes me. I don't choose God or oneness or whatever. It chooses me. But only very rarely, and never when I'm pursuing it.

It is June 6, and I am quite sure I will not read anything so true or good the rest of the year. 💖💖
Thank you very much.
