i really like the way you connected this to love at the end. i think my belief in love as a principle is my saving grace, because i also struggle with the idea of "buying in" wrt any specific religion or scientistic dogma or belief system, but at bottom, i do believe that god is love, and to love is never a mistake. which makes it a lot easier to feel certain that i'm at least right when i choose to do that, even if the results aren't immediately or obviously favorable. at the end of the day we really do choose faith.
