Do not ask Why. Be cautious with How. Why leads inexorably to paradox. How traps you in a universe of cause and effect. Both deny the infinite.

I totally agree with you, and I really appreciate this post.

I think that there is a certain amount of responsibility put on the self to move forward, but at the same time, as you said, how could we ever begin to understand what lies beyond “the curtain”.

I completely agree with you. Everything is a shade of grey, nothing is ever black and white in any given situation. Some people just find it so hard to see the grey that you can’t even convince them that there are several shades of grey…
