Recently Bob and I were sharing drinks at one of the local watering holes and we got on the subject of spirituality. He told me that people dont see him as spiritual but that he felt he was very spiritual but not in the traditional way. I liked that answer. Anyway yesterday when a few of us met with his brother at Bobs new digs, I asked if I could have a book that Bob constantly talked to me about You are the Placebo. I think this excerpt, that Bob highlighted ,defines what he was talking about as far as his spirituality went. I believe that theres an intelligence, an invisible consciousness, within each of us thats the giver of life. It supports, maintains, protects, and heals us every moment. It creates almost 100 trillion specialized cells (starting from only 2). It keeps our hearts beating hundreds of thousands of times per day, and it can organize hundreds of thousands of chemical reactions in a single cell in every second - among many other amazing functions. I reasoned at the time that if this intelligence was real and if it willfully, mindfully, and lovingly demonstrated such amazing abilities, maybe I could take my attention off my external world and begin to go within and connect with it-developing a relationship with it.
