" I don't think I'm cut out for epiphanies. "

epiph-any- the appearance or manifestation of divinity

Has there been epiphanies, but we just don't see them?

Sorry for mixing tenses...past, present, future, it's all the same eventually.

...and my mistakes.

"[Have] there been..."

"Why are we [here]?"

It's too early in the morning, I guess. Dehydration is real, too.

Oh, I just found a new word, "decolletage".

Corrections

Often, at my gigs (playing my music for parties, dances, etc.), I would take my breaks alone in a quiet section of the place my band was playing at, away from the crowd. The gig was usually outdoors, which allowed for more people and cheaper rates. During my breaks, I would enjoy observing the skies and wildlife doing their routine. Then I'd get hit with this tremendous overwhelming sense of curiousity and fear. The questions would begin:

Why are we here?
How did we get here?
How can it be that we and all the things around us exist?
How can God exist?
How is all of this possible?
This has got to be the craziest most illogical existence! But, I can't prove or disprove any of this. Is this all some weird dream or illusion? This mystery of life is so overwhelming.

Is life the epiphany we need to prove the existence of our Creator, our God?

(I feel better now that my post has fewer errors.)

Rod-

Sometimes on gigs if they were going well, I'd get an incredible feeling while playing a solo that "seemed" almost not to be coming from me. Seemed too right, effortless, and surprising.

I didn't really know what to make of it. Just wished it happend more often.
