Connected to something beyond space and time?
Have you ever had that feeling that you were connected to something beyond space and time? What would happen if space and time were gone? I believe that there would be photons.

Empathy
“In the moment when I truly understand my enemy, understand him well enough to defeat him, then in that very moment I also love him. I think it’s impossible to really understand somebody, what they want, what they believe, and not love them the way they love themselves.” – Ender This character sounds like hates…
The Meaning of Life
Like flowers in a field we are God’s creation meant to shine with the light of the Holy Spirit. He knows our every petal as we give thanks for his glory. We are his children and our lives are meant for charity as we are all endowed with gifts that only grow as we give…
