"Daddy... does everything have to mean something?" (My daughter 1990)
"God did not create the universe to operate at the roll of the dice." (Albert Einstein)
The Point: Everything has meaning and a controlled purpose. Nothing is meaningless.

There is a possibility, a potential, a reason, a point, something worthy of consideration in all of it.
And to miss that point... to not hear that message... not see the reason... is a choice (with its own inherent set of reasons.)
My quest is, and always has been, to understand the "Why?"s of all of it.
Finding a comfort zone that allows freedom of mind and spirit...
Embracing all that Life offers with an acceptance born of respect...
Respect for the circumstance, the individual, the ideology, the agreeable
(and disagreeable.)
Discriminating with a basis in personal choice... for myself...
while not prescribing for others.
Having the courage to present and support those choices in the face of adversarial conflict.
Seeing meanings inherent to everything with honor, and even reverence,
for all in creations context.
This is my life's moment-by-moment intent.
John-Michael/18 June 1999
