Worship

In the day-to-day trenches of adult life, there is actually no such
thing as atheism.

There is no such thing as not worshipping.

Everybody worships.

The only choice we get is what to worship.

And an outstanding reason for choosing some sort of god or spiritual-
type thing to worship -- be it J.C. or Allah, be it Yahweh or the
Wiccan mother-goddess or the Four Noble Truths or some infrangible set
of ethical principles -- is that pretty much anything else you worship
will eat you alive.

If you worship money and things -- if they are where you tap real
meaning in life -- then you will never have enough.

Never feel you have enough.

It's the truth.


-- David Foster Wallace
