I think its funny how when you have lost something that you think is valuable to you, that's all you think about. You try to remember where you last saw it, or where you last put it down. You get easily reminded of it throughout the day by the simplest things.
Lately, I have been kinda obsessed with this idea of true knowledge. I think its hard to live in the culture and time that we live in because of the image and things expectant of us. We are expected to know, rush, and hurry through life. We are expected to achieve and obtain all the answers. But this is what I think....We search and scavenge for the answers for our entire life. We search for the answer to the meaning of life. We search for the answer to how to enjoy life, but we are missing something. We have all the answers, its the questions we are missing. If we had the questions, all the meaningless facts we know would have some type of purpose. We go through school, with people telling us what to think and what is right....when are we going to think for ourselves? We have all the answers, start asking questions. We have lost that desire and feeling of losing something. Christ never meant life to be dull and for lack of a better word, lifeless. Christ lived a life of constantly pushing buttons, and asking questions. He took the world as everyone knew it and turned it upside down. Everyone thought they knew all the answers....but when Christ asked questions, those meaningless facts had no home. We have lost the sense of 'lostness'...that feeling of only thinking about that one thing and having it consume your minds. Turn your meaningless facts of what you know about life..into questions that will point you straight to the cross.
