Fear (3)
  1. I think the problem with the idea of eternity is that we do not have any direct experience of it, but we encounter enough of its possibility to be unsettling.
  2. How we feel is so often conditioned upon what we are experiencing. Faith grabs hold of something outside our experience, something objective and true that is not changed by circumstance.
  3. You can see it far off, looming on the horizon, a thick fog menacing off the coast and swirling in the distance. You know the signs.
