Why are we wasting time on cultivating a lasting and rewarding relationship with God while we barely understand ourselves and each other?

That was one of the main questions that turned me away from living my life as a "Christian".

I wonder why more people never ask that question. It's amazing, really, how long people ignore what seems to be right in front of them, like, oh yeah, HUMAN BEINGS. If being a literature major has taught me anything, it's that real, live people are way more interesting --- and satisying to spend time with --- than any book. You just have to actually stop long enough to make eye contact and connect.

Where is everyone pretending to go in such a hurry all the time...?
