: i guess the difference is, that which comes to us in christianity as i have experienced it, has a kind of vast glory that can be completely overpowering. i cannot exist in it for long, it basically destroys me in so many ways that i just sort of end up folding over. breaking into a lot of little mirrors. i keep wishing they would all go dark.
: that which has come to me in my creative moments feels like a thing on a smaller scale. but for me it is no less important. i have been, in one way or another, seeking to escape the glory cloud. not sure, but it may be following me around. or, i keep stumbling into it. once in a while. when i get lucky.
I also cannot exist in that glory for long without being destroyed, but that is what I seek-- overwhelming glory that destroys me. I can't seem to find it enough. But maybe I am meaning something else. I want to understand this better. Explain to me more about the little mirrors. What are they reflecting?
