Little truths
Small little truths that we run across confirm in us something bigger. If, say, I honestly share a mini-realization I had and it rings true for you too something inside is confirmed that was already inside you. You suspected that it might be true but weren't sure. Here someone else is bringing it to the light and you are not alone in what you see. You are not isolated. Your secret truth is shared by another. Whether through difficulties or even some joys, or just by observing we have both been there and touched something similar. Such little truths build and accumulate to bigger truths. In a sense they build a structure of truth. In another sense by just seeing little truths we earn our way to trust what is big and true. We experience a brief sense of peace and can rest in what lies beneath everything. In this way life connects us, even if just for a moment, to the biggest truths; that there is a reason for it all, that beyond all our doubts there really even might be a God.
