The Light Bulb

As one ages, there is still time to learn things.  A light bulb turned on today; each time a new idea is discovered, an estatic joy of discovery gives the spirit a lift.   This is true in the physical, mental and spiritual realms. Wellbeing due to exercise sparks energy.  Solving a puzzle that has plagued my mind for weeks gives a different jolt to other Rubik's cubes.  Reading a book, True Spirituality by Francis Schaeffer, (a Christian classic from the 1970's) and pondering the philosopher's approach to the Life, gives pause, illumination and understanding of Scripture. All three areas increase my desire to know more about the world around me and the God who created it and me.
