I can't say exactly why, but life seems to be focusing lately. It feels as though I am finally letting go of everything I cannot do in this life and finding what I actually care about. There is a confidence in this, in recognizing that everyone is in the same predicament of having to choose to do a few things while knowing we are all creatures with unfulfilled potential. You have to do one thing which you love and know you are supposed to do. I believe in a life of confidence, in a communion with the Absolute. Though we live in this relative world of ratios and information, the world exists; the Absolute is perceivable. When we make decisions, we can know what to do.
I'm still getting this clear in my head, but I think principles can be tied to feelings which can guide us to correct living. I don't think informational principles can be coldly applied to every situation; ethics cannot be taught outside of a mentoring relationship. I am conceiving of correctness as making the right decision and the right decision is personal, but there is a right decision; the world exists and I can fit into it. I am getting used to feeling this right decision and it has something to do with a connection to everything else around me.
