Today I had a discussion with my son-in-law. The subject matter was a story made viral. The summary of the story was that one woman in a lonely desolate cottage lived with her cancer stricken baby. Bereft financially, she was praying all the time that one Dr. Mark, a known specialist, could visit her cottage and cure the child. The doctor came one day. His flight had been cancelled. He hired a personally driven cab to take a 4 hour journey to his destination. There was storm. He lost his way. Finally, he found refuge in the same cottage. He heard the entire story. He became a believer.
Integrated with scientific temper, my methods are microscopic. I use to weigh and measure what comes in my way.The science of measurement finds the truth.However, microscope has limitations of its platform.
His approach is macroscopic as he looks beyond what comes in his way.Macroscopic ways has an infinite scope.He relied heavily on faith. Faith is beyond measurement. Faith begins with the Creator and end unto the Creator.
All truths are easy to understand once they are discovered; the point is to discover them (Galileo Galilei). Faith is taking the first step even when you don't see the whole staircase (Martin Luther King, Jr).
I searched the internet to know about the doctor so that I could connect the story much better. To my amazement, I found the same story verbatim with the name of the doctor changed in a number of websites. In all the instances, it was to foster a particular religion or a cult. This looked like plagiarism to befool innocent people. My son-in-law took it otherwise. He said that this was to inculcate faith upon the Almighty and His ways. This drives the people to go ahead with optimism in life.
I pondered in the quietness of the dawning morning.

Can we ever find out the truth? We are but tiny particles on a tiny planet revolving around the Sun. The Sun is a star. There are billions of stars in a galaxy. There are billions of galaxies in the universe. There are billions of universes. We have still to discover innumerable truths about our tiny planet what to say about stars, galaxies and the universes. The outreach of the latest Hubble Space Station has only been able to determine the rate of expansion of our tiny universe. Until then, have faith while there is life!
