Vort Posted June 14, 2023 Report Share Posted June 14, 2023 From Facebook, but despite that, I thought it was good enough to share here. “Do you know how whales die? They drown. They spend their whole life living in and swimming in a world that eventually kills them. “Do you know why that is? Whales are mammals. Most mammals walk on the face of the earth, but the whale lives in a world that they are not of. “They are in the water, but they are not of the water. So while fish can swim around for their entire lives with gills, breathing in the water, the whale most come up out of the water to live. There is a life source that is not in the world that he lives in that he needs access to. “You are in this world but you are not of this world. You are not just a mind. You are not just a body. You are a spirit wrapped up in a man or a woman. And in this life you need God—you need to pray, you need to worship, you need to read the word of God. “Because if you don’t learn to come up for air, you will drown.” - @russelldafourth askandanswer, zil2, NeuroTypical and 4 others 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vort Posted June 14, 2023 Author Report Share Posted June 14, 2023 To be clear, I don't even know if the above (mine, not mik's) is true. But I perceive a deep truth to it, whether or not it is literally so. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
