SPIRITUAL THEMES

ON BEING LOST

He who hesitates is not only lost, but miles from the next exit.
--Unknown

The only reason some people get lost in thought is because it's unfamiliar territory.
--Paul Fix

We're not lost. We're locationally challenged.
--John M. Ford

The scientific theory I like best is that the rings of Saturn are composed entirely of lost airline luggage.
--Mark Russell

Bureaucracy defends the status quo long past the time when the quo has lost its status.
--Laurence J. Peter (1919 - 1988)

To be stupid, selfish, and have good health are three requirements for happiness, though if stupidity is lacking, all is lost.
--Gustave Flaubert (1821 - 1880)

The whole concept of man on an island reminds us of who we truly are. "Three days ago we all died. We should all be able to start over," Jack says. Who they were before the crash was their old nature. This time on the island represents their chance at redemption -- if they want it. When stripped of the conventions of society, without the veneer of civilization, are we the cast of Lord of the Flies waiting to happen or can we rise above our basic nature? Terry O'Quinn's character, when talking about backgammon, explains, "there are two players: one is light and one is dark," echoing the sentiment that there are ultimately two sides, good and evil. The mysterious creature on the island reminds me of the Bible passage "Be self-controlled and alert. Your enemy the devil prowls around like a roaring lion looking for someone to devour" (I Peter 5:8).
