As far as the sea change, pretty well. The water's fine.

It's a bit solitary, in an odd way. Not necessarily a bad way, though.

I'm going to take a slow read through this thread again. It was a bit overwhelming for a while there, and I'm sure I missed a lot.

No other agnostics in this sea? Or do you mean no longer feeling God's presence?

Perhaps, that means excellent sailing toward other seas.

No man's an island, and maybe one of us could come along and help you navigate.

I hope it proves fruitful for you, my friend.

I actually look for God's presence all the time. Almost every waking hour. But I've just been floating. And it's mostly been fine.

I really don't know right now how anyone could not be agnostic.

Well. It could. I really just don't know what seas I'm sailing towards.

Yeah. I don't disagree. I don't think any man's an island. I wouldn't want to be. And I'm certainly not telling folks what the right path is... I don't know right now. Floating.

Thank you. So far it has, I think. I don't know where it'll wind up. Not easy.

Reminds me of my old response...but some men can be atolls without half trying.

Not sure that helps zoo much, but it made me feel better. And sometimes that's all you can do.

It's hard to sail without stars or a compass. But when that happens it's mostly just a question of keeping the water out, don't you think?

Well, you've got a good boat on your shoulders.
