Maybe the world isn’t supposed to change. Maybe it’s just a proving ground, to allow us to extend our reach toward the infinite, all the while awaring ourselves that we are already that which we seek to become. In its seemingly numberless forms and plays, the world shapes us and molds us as we mold and breathe life into its inert clay. God becoming more Itself as It realizes that never did It need do anything to improve on its own perfection.

Since there are seeds of Itself within us, all we need do is awake to this fact and by so doing, overlook all seeming evidence of evil. This is a decision that is made in a single moment. Yet since we exist beyond time, it is already made. Being changeless, the reality of existence could never be other than it is right now. All we need do is remember this, and never was it not so.
