Reality

It hit me last night.

People don't live in reality.

Lot's of people think they do, but they don't. The reality is that most people live without ever giving a thought to anything spiritual. However, because it is real, because God is real, because there is a spiritual battle happening for our souls as we speak, how can we say we truly live in reality if we ignore this aspect of it?

Sure, we can't see it necessarily. But neither can you see the wind.

Have you ever stopped--I mean really stopped--and been present? As in, fully and completely acknowledge where you are, right now, in this moment in relation to everything else?

This world we try to build for ourselves is nothing without God.

It's time we stop ignoring it and start facing the fact that what we think, say, and do does matter. It does have moral bearing. It does affect us. I does affect others. It does change lives.

That is the reality.

"If you are who you should be, you will set the world on fire."
- St. Catherine of Siena
