Gen, this is beautiful. I have no words for you, except keep going. You are not close, you are already there, exactly where God wants you to be. And at some point, at another point in your life, you will look back and say: “I knew it all along.”
You are not lost. You are not wrong. You are perfect just the way you are.
I am similar to you, in many ways. And here’s what I found on my journey with God:
God loves your questions.
God loves your sincere heart and will never let you be “led astray” by anyone or anything because of your pureness of heart.
God loves the way you piece things together from psychology, to philosophy, to art, to religion, to spirituality, to simply being human.
God loves the way you love His mysteries, and your desire and devotion to piecing as much as the puzzle as we’ve been left with - while simultaneously understanding that you won’t know everything..
We can’t know everything. That’s why it’s all about trust, openness, curiosity, and most importantly - love. Love for all things. For all walks. For all paths. For all people. For all creation, disagreements and all.
Continue your path. You are doing amazing work for those picking up the crumbs you leave behind!
Thank you, Melel. This means so much, especially coming from someone who is as open to life and faith as you are. I believe the same— that each of us has a unique journey, and that it will ultimately lead us toward the truth we’re all seeking: love. It is the foundation of everything, and perhaps the greatest thing there is.

Thank you for being here. 🤍
Your piece reminded me that I want to become someone who grows a little more humble, a little more grateful, and a little more loving every day. 😇
I think that’s all we really need to be. Simple and yet demands work and strength of character. Your heart is in the right place, Keiichiro. :)
Gen, thank you. That really means a lot to me. Hearing you say that gives me a lot of strength. 😇
