“Once there was a boy with a wicked heart,' the troll woman said.

'No, that's not right,' Cardan interrupted. 'That's not how it goes. He had a wicked tongue.'

“For most of the year I wore no shoes. This Higher Power was my guide, but it seemed to be just as confused about the world as I was. Eventually, I realized that my Higher Power was an ethereal nothingness. It was a collection of lofty ideas that, although beautiful, were not capable of contradicting me, reshaping my paradigms, or defining reality for me. It was a god that appealed to my own sensibilities; it was as ever-changing and subjective as my own mind.”
Michael J Heil, Pursued: God’s relentless pursuit and a drug addict’s journey to finding purpose
