“ A belief is not merely an idea the mind possesses. It is an idea that possesses the mind.” – Robert Oxton Bolton.
I had to stop and think about this one. I believe a lot of things. And, in turn, there are a lot of things I refuse to believe in. I believe in a God. I have a very hard time putting faith in someone, something, like that. Something that vast and vague. I am skeptical to say the least. You know, I had a friend tell me that I didn’t believe in God. She assumed that because I can’t be caught within a 100 yards of a church, I simply must not believe. She told me I needed a stronger faith present in my life. I could spend all my time praying..Or I could take my life into my own hands. I think people need a healthy balance of both. But I also feel that most people don’t actually have beliefs. Instead, they constantly change and manipulate their “beliefs” to justify their actions. And that is all I have to say about that.
Peace
