From the recorded history of earth,

And human beings and how we evolved,

The development of language,

And the fact that the earth is just the right amount of distance from the sun

And that we have just the right amount of carbon dioxide and other atmospheric gases to make our planet habitable,

The human body and the way our brains work

And the absolute miracle of life,

To the way all of our stories seem to be woven and interconnected,

To the beauty of nature and all of the natural phenomena that occurs daily,

And how just about everything seems to have a place and a purpose.

All of these things,

Have pointed to God to me

And it makes me think that there is more than just this one life to live

And yet somehow we should still make the most of it while we can.

When I was watching the fireworks go off this past Fourth of July

That’s all I could think about.

I was hoping and wishing that when we die

We get a chance to relive all the best moments of our life again

Before we pass into the great unknown that is death.

I was hoping those moments forgotten and unforgotten would come back

Like a flash,

Like a burst of memory,

Like a firework.

All beautiful and glorious one moment
