....there ain't no answer

"There ain't no answer.

 There ain't gonna be any answer. 

There never has been an answer. 

That's the answer." ~ Gertrude Stein

This is probably the longest thing I've ever read written by Gertrude Stein, but I like it.  

Frankly, it answers so many questions but most importantly it answers the question, 'Why?'   

Ain't no answer.

You can believe in fate.  

You can believe in your own strength, courage, intelligence and willingness to work.  

You can believe in the government.

I choose to hold fast to the promises of the divine, the Creator, the giver of life.

But in the end, there ain't no answer. 

 There's God's promises and hope built on Jesus the Christ.

What's your hope built on?  What's your answer?
