@[Twiky:14213] I can see your perspective. I hope times are better now. Loss of faith is hard. I've gone through it myself. I can't see a loving and generous God condemning 5 billion ppl to hell, that was always my problem. But, I had an experience that helped me. I was extremely depressed about life in general. I prayed very hard (it was more like meditation really) and asked if there was anyone listening. I honestly felt like I got a hug from the universe. I felt so much love it was incomprehensible. Strangely, it was scary, too. Because I never thought God, or whatever you conceive of your higher power to be, gave me much thought. Nor did I feel I was important to the His plan. I don't testify and I'm not sure I'm a Christian. I've only ever told my husband that story. But, for some reason I read your comment (which I rarely do) and I felt compelled to compose this post. Maybe no one will see this, but hopefully, it will be out there for someone to see. I never thought I'd have that type of experience, it was incredible. |

@[usmcgorman:14212] Incredible. Thank you so much for sharing your story, experience, and you're keen analysis of "Nutshell". I agree with your assessment, but I also feel this song is about chronic depression, in addition to addiction and the bright lights. But, then, its his whole life in a "Nutshell". |
