I especially liked the “What’s the secret?” question because yesterday when I was wandering around Stockholm, I had the thought, “What’s for certain?” come to mind. It may be because I’d recently seen someone answer the Hinge dating app prompt “I am certain that” by saying, “I will die.” (Swedish humor.) Interestingly, I’ve encountered more professed atheists here on this trip (also mostly via dating apps) than probably my whole prior life. (Is this a European thing?)
anyway, I was thinking about that question and how there’s actually not much I can, or want to, answer about that right now, and how that’s pretty freeing. Because once we have that defined, we’re open to whatever else there is, and whatever else could be, I believe.
What’s for certain?
