I believe if there's any kind of God it wouldn't be in any of us, not you or me but just this little space in between. If there's any kind of magic in this world it must be in the attempt of understanding someone sharing something. I know, it's almost impossible to succeed but who cares really? The answer must be in the attempt. Julie Delpy
About This Quote

When people say that they believe in God, most often they are referring to the Christian God. However, I believe that is only one of many forms of the divine. The concept of an unseen power is just as plausible as the idea of an all-knowing God. We try to explain the strange things around us by making assumptions, but it’s not always clear what we’re really observing.

It may be impossible for me to explain why I believe in God, but I can tell you how I got there. There was a time when I didn't know anything about God. I was so angry with God for the fact that my life was so miserable.

Not only that but that I felt like there was no meaning or purpose to my life. What would happen next? No one knew. That's when I decided to stop waiting on someone else to come save me and change my life.

Instead, I had to do it myself.
