| TRUTH SOMEWHERE CLOSE BY
Since my childhood I've been restlessly searching for the answer to one question: Who are We? What We Are? Why are We here, on Earth? What is the reason for our existence? Church, psychic, prophets are only a small part of multitude of strange and inexplicable phenomena around of us.
As I was growing older, my life was demanded more and more every minute decisions and the important questions were becoming more obscure. The time was passing and I was getting a strong feeling that unknown forces were punishing me for not fulfilling the quest I was sent to Earth for.
And each time I was starting to think about my important questions I had a sensation, that I am driven through the tunnel, not allowing to step aside. And then again, having broken in blood my elbows and knees, trying to change my life, again I come back to these questions. I should find the answer to stop the senseless wondering in life.

When I was a child, I was bugging adults with questions how all has begun, or how our world was created and what was before it all has started and what was round it, and what now around our Universe?
Their answers showed to me that they knew nothing. When I grew up, one day I decided to ordered for myself an astrological forecast. There was one thing in the forecast has amazed me the most: it predicted that I, the atheist, trusting only in science, will come to church.
Years have passed and I have come to church for help and answers... but have not found them there.
I have addressed to the Astrology with questions, but answers were indistinct and did not give me a spiritual support I was looking for.
Year passed after year and the life routine has again distracted me from these thoughts, but the next punishment again has put me in a way of exploring these questions.

Science today has advanced. There is a lot of new information and I realized that the answers are all around us, but they are fragmented into small grains, and therefore can not be clearly seen.
If you add up all the religious beliefs of the people on Earth, while casting aside the differences in the rituals and allegories of religious books, it becomes evident that they all say basically the same thing. If you add up all those fractions of different faiths, they will form a grain of truth. But at the end it will be half-hearted anyway - only half of the truth. If we add here the discoveries of psychologists, astronomers, physicists of all kinds and categories, then we will end up with two thirds of the truth.
And it seems now we are ready to grasp and understand the whole truth!
Or may I be wrong again?
The ways of God are in inscrutable.
