wasn’t asking for signs or proofs. I was asking for explanations; ways of understanding a universe where ‘understanding’ as we know it simply isn’t possible.  How powerful can Your Love be? Where is it hidden, if at all? Will You show me?

Many aday I sit and ponder the d i s t a n c e between Us. Are You where my eye can reach or do You surpass ‘it’? Am I to look up as I commune with You, as I long imagined, or are You all around? 

I don’t know much, but I know - for certain -  that You are not far. 

The interesting part is that the gap that lives between me and knowledge of You draws parallels to the incomprehensible and possibly limitless distance that resides between us and knowledge of the Universe beyond. Essentially, a storytelling of love for one’s Beloved in the ardent and restless pursuit of science. A distance that, just possibly, was never intended to be travelled through mind and body alone. 

I admire You. Your Magnificence, Your Grandeur. For not only do I fall soul-shaken to a state of soul that is utterly You, but I look up and around to see all that is Yours. 

In everything You have bestowed a token of Yourself; elements that, like portals, tell us of You. All Your Goodness, Kindness, Patience . . . Eternity. 

I know that, if gravity were to be a spiritual element in physical form, it would be love. And if patience was a telling of the soul then our journey to You would be an embodiment of it. 

I, also, know that where distance lies is a filling for ‘something greater’. So, between us and You, perhaps, this ‘something greater’ fills. And, just maybe, everything - from us to You - is one and the same; a unified display of greatness. 

But, were I to ask for a way to understand how it all moves . . . how life circulates? How the current of progress and growth is made to exist? Around where movement revolves? 

What would You say?

Would You say? . . .

There is a nucleus. It is a centre for unfathomable gravity whereby all things in its orbit are subject to its all-dominating pull, drawing them closer to itself, but only at the mercy of its all-encompassing tide. Whereby peace lies at its core though chaos seemingly surrounds its outer shell. There is nothing that overcomes the power of this nucleus, and for all eternity will its orchestrated movement exist and find accelerating magnitude - for gravity multiplies at its unity. Whomsoever finds its centre, finds utter peace.

And, I am at the Center of all that Exists.  

Or, might You say?  . . .

Observe a blackhole.
