Love it, Faye! I agree, it is the same unseen.

And how lovely to feel that way with your partner. I know how it feels to be in a relationship where it feels like all of Eternity was made for us, for us to be together in This Moment. We are two reflections of God or Eros ("or the universal consciousness or the creator or whatever you prefer to name her"), long traveled on this nigh 14-billion-year expansion/exploration (or perhaps more, or perhaps through "no-time"), all with the express purpose of bringing us together Right Now.

Some will say I'm delusional. They don't actually hear what I'm saying. But if you know, you know.

I love how you weave your lexicons of science and spirit together to create something that can appeal to people who fall to either side of the spectrum of logic/mystery.

Hah yeah, I've been called delusional my fair share, but like you said, they just don't hear, living in their own bubble of delusion void of awe. And if it is a delusion (which I keep accidentally spelling delicious) I'm happy to live in this one. I'm sure you are, too. It is a testament to the magic of what true love can be.

And, as Joseph Campbell says, the function of mythology is not to be logical or correct, but to evoke a sense of grateful, affirmative awe before the monstrous mystery that is existence, and to present an image of the cosmos that will maintain and elicit this experience of awe.
