Why I'm Grateful For the Force

On this penultimate episode of my gratitude week, I'd like to express my thanks for the concept of the Force. As a religious person, the philosophy and theology of the Force speaks to me on a deeply personal level. George Lucas took many concepts of the world's religions and boiled them down to their essence in such a way that every person of a religious and spiritual persuasion, even if they believe in a god or not, can understand and apply those lessons to their own lives. Join me as I celebrate what is possible Star Wars' greatest contribution.
