Wrong Solution

Wrong Solution
New Beginnings

I puzzled to see a woman in the next lap lane in the pool wearing huge sunglasses. Not goggles, sunglasses. We paused at the same time. I asked her about her glasses. She said they prevented glare. 'But they’re not helping today,' she said. 'They’re just fogging over.' And she continued her swim in her sunglasses. I tried to understand.

Her solution did not match her problem. I’m reminded of people following false religions. They realize a deep need for a firm foundation. They embrace a belief system that requires sacrifice, marginalizing one gender, and loyalty to a dead human. They could follow Jesus, God in human form, who conquered death, values all people, and brings real light.
