We can only see what our brain’s filter allows through.

I grew up in a scientific world, the son of a neurosurgeon.

We-each of us-are intricately, irremovably connected to the larger universe. It is our true home, and thinking that this physical world is all that matters is like shutting oneself up in a small closet and imagining that there is nothing else out beyond it.

Laughter and irony are at heart reminders that we are not prisoners in this world, but voyagers through it.

We can only see what our brain’s filter allows through.

Our spirit is not dependent on the brain or body. It is eternal, and no one has one sentence worth of hard evidence that it isn’t.

We - each of us - are intricately, irremovably connected to the larger universe.
