    Black then white are 
    All I see 
    In my infancy 
    Red and yellow then came to be 
    Reaching out to me 
    Lets me see

    As below so above and beyond I imagine 
    Drawn beyond the lines of reason 
    Push the envelope 
    Watch it bend

    Over thinking, over analyzing 
    Separate my body from the mind 
    Withering my intuition 
    Misting opportunities that I must 
    Feed my will to feel my moment 
    Drawing way outside the lines

    Black then white are 
    All I see 
    In my infancy 
    Red and yellow then came to be 
    Reaching out to me 
    Lets me see

    There is so much more and 
    Beckons me 
    To look through to these 
    Infinite possibilities

    As below so above and beyond I imagine 
    Drawn outside the lines of reason 
    Push the envelope 
    Watch it bend

    Over thinking, over analyzing, separate my body from the mind 
    Withering my intuition, leaving opportunities behind

    Feed my will to feel this moment 
    Urging me to cross the line 
    Reaching out to embrace the random 
    Reaching out to embrace whatever may come

    I embrace my desire to 
    I embrace my desire to 
    Feel the rhythm 
    To feel connected 
    Enough to step aside and 
    Weep like a widow 
    To feel inspired 
    To fathom the power 
    To witness the beauty 
    To bathe in the fountain 
    To swing on the spiral 
    To swing on the spiral

    To swing on the spiral of 
    How a divinity can 
    Still be a human

    With my feet upon the ground 
    I lose myself between the sounds 
    And open wide to suck it in 
    I feel it move across my skin 
    I’m reaching up and reaching out 
    I’m reaching for the random or 
    Whatever will bewilder me 
    Whatever will be willed of me 
    And following our will and wind 
    We may just go where no one’s been 
    We’ll ride the spiral to the end 
    And may just go where no one’s been

    Spiral out, keep going 
    Spiral out, keep going 
    Spiral out, keep going 
    Spiral out, keep going

    Oooh, great, I certainly agree.

    This happened in my life several times but the most memorable ones happened with my readings and rereadings of Ecclesiastes and the Sermon on the Mount as my faith/understanding increased.
