As I sit at the kitchen table, alone on a quiet Saturday morning, I wonder why things are the way they are.  Why are we here on Earth and what are we supposed to do with ourselves?  I look at the events going on, specifically the World Cup, and think to myself.  I look at the global whole, the happy people, the sad people, the poor people, the rich people.  People who live in luxurious mansions, and children living in abstract poverty.

Is the world supposed to be yin and yang?  A counterbalance for everything?  I guess these are questions that could be debated endlessly.  Who knows?  Does God know (if you believe in Him)?  And to that end, if you do believe in him, why does He allow terrible things to happen?

Deep thoughts indeed, and far more questions than answers.

I think I’ll go back to reading the Sports page.
