If love is what I've experienced, I can't separate it from other people. I can't separate creation, and I can't separate whatever this creative thing is, from it's creation. I don't believe that can be done. We're all part of this creative force.

As Lao Tzu says, "The Tao that can be named is not the true Tao".

Life was not longer something to endure, but to live.

I certainly do attempt to live according to spiritual principles. That's always the foundation of each and every day. I have experienced some things in my life that just force me to believe in some sort of power. A creative . . . creative power source; however you want to phrase it. I certainly have experienced that presence. And I have experienced what I consider the basic, what we would call love and concern.

I think Mozart, like you, is an example of someone who has the gods moving through him, and his religion was creation.

I'm always presenting myself with problems to solve as a writer.
