Re: Common sense and intuition
I think that when you're trying to reconnect broken parts in your brain, its perfectly ok to go"out of balance" wrt study/intuition in order to re-learn the trust/faith in the intuition. It is justlike any arrested development...you cant go around or over it, you have to experience it.
If you abandon academic pursuit in favor of re-learning/building trust and faith and you are doing it in a safe and healthy environment where when you go awry, someone you love/ trust can say "hey, whats up with that?" I think you'll find that you havent actually given up the academics at all, but chosen a season of studying a different way, prayerfully, in order to achieve a balanced surrendered life.

Love. You can learn all the math in the 'verse, but you take a boat in the air that you don't love, she'll shake you off just as sure as the turn of the world. Love keeps her in the air when she ought to fall down. Tells you she's hurting before she keens. Makes her a home.
