Faked Out

God has given us all a story that is woven around our purpose, whether we choose to live a life that fulfills it or not. Our true purpose is to love, even though we donaEUR(tm)t know how much time we have. Life is filled with many options and so many people that it is sometimes hard to know which to choose and who to actually listen to. IaEUR(tm)m grateful to God for placing some recognizably wise people in my life who are there to encourage me in making good choices.The aftermath and far reach for the spiritual resolve of a seemingly unfulfilled existence can cause prolonged and inexplicable grief. It is in the complete acceptance of humanityaEUR(tm)s biggest certainty, death, that one will start to acknowledge it as part of life and, in doing so, come back to life.Life almost faked them out! Hosea and India may never have had a successful life together on this plane due to their extreme differences in callings; their true purposes; and overall lifeaEUR(tm)s expectancy, desires, and dreams. Yet they had real love as real as Romeo and JulietaEUR(tm)s. A woman by the name of Jeanette Winterson was onto something that hinges on authenticity (aEURoereal talkaEUR) as she penned the following quote in a book called Written on the Body:aEURoeYouaEUR(tm)ll get over itaEUR|aEUR ItaEUR(tm)s the clichA(c)s that cause the trouble. To lose someone you love is to alter your life forever. You donaEUR(tm)t get over it because aEUR~itaEUR is the person you loved. The pain stops, there are new people, but the gap never closes. How could it? The particularness of someone who mattered enough to grieve over is not made anodyne by death. This hole in my heart is in the shape of you, and no-one else can fit it. Why would I want them to?

This book is about the intrusive fear that we may not be what we appear to be, or worse, that we may be only what we appear to be and nothing more. It is concerned with the worry of being exposed as frauds in our profession, cads in our love lives, as less than virtuously motivated actors when we are being agreeable, charitable, or decent. Why do we so often mistrust the motives of our own deeds, thinking them fake, though the beneficiary of them gives us full credit? Much of this book deals with that self-tormenting self-consciousness. It is about roles and identity, discussing our engagement in the roles we play, our doubts about our identities amidst this flux of roles, and thus about anxieties of authenticity.
