Reflecting about intentions today. Here’s what strikes me
99.9% of intentions (to have a certain job, to go on this holiday, to have this relationship, to improve our body in some way, to create this project that positively impacts the lives of others) are formed from our experiences.
But our experiences are limited.
Therefore 99.9% of intentions are limited too.
This is why, even if they manifest, we do not feel free.
Faith is where our intentions are not conceived from our experiences.
The known is a shadow which shrouds the unknown from becoming seen.
Faith is love of the unknown.
The prayer of the faithful is “may my path be illuminated with the light of the unknown”
