I often wonder about the lions we battle inside our religious lives; is it real or imagined? There are numerous terrifying threats to the spiritual being. But still, I wonder whether were devoted to the live or imagined lions. We can point at society using its values and mores and pinpoint how it differs from our image of a spiritual existence. I don?t want my children to look at television and learn that youngsters may meet with their parents as though we were holding idiots. That is a very real threat. I do not want my kids and grandchildren growing up inside a world where relationships are casual and all sorts of too often, meaningless. However, essentially the most fearsome lions I face are all internal. My own confusion, questions, desires, and inner battles all are greater threats to my relationship with God than others lions and threats outside of the walls of my house. The study of geology also encompasses Earth processes which can affect overall civilization. An earthquake can destroy a large number of lives in a few minutes. Also, tsunamis, floods, landslides, droughts, and volcanic activity may have an enormous influence on civilization. Geologists study those processes and can recommend action plans to minimize damage in the event that such events will occur. For example, by studying flood patterns of rivers, geologists can recommend areas to stop when building new cities,towns, and residential neighborhoods in order to prevent future damage. Earthquake science, although a very difficult division of study, might help minimize problems for life and civilization by estimating where earthquakes are likely to occur (referred to as fault lines) also to recommend the technology to use within the construction of buildings over these vulnerable areas. Van Gogh began his work relying on the Dutch Masters. He was intrigued by the Masters' ability to have fun with shadow and lightweight. He also found an association in the painting of common events and/or people. For instance, The Potato Eaters captures a small grouping of peasants sitting yourself down for any meal. The painting is dark, yet, light radiates from your faces.
