No, I haven't gone Buddhist or even particularly New Age. But reality is only what we perceive it to be, and in the process of perception, we humans are busily assinging meanings and value. That's how we make things make sense.
The growth comes in realizing that the meanings I happen to have attached to things are not the absolute meanings; they are simply meanings I have attached. The only Aboslute in the universe is The Divine. Everything else is an attempt to reach and/or understand The Divine.
Things, objects, are meaningless. They have no intrinsic value. Their only value is the value I assign to them. That gives me quite a lot of power in creating my world, no?
