Belief

The contradiction is always there.

Good and evil.

Light and dark.

Love and hate.

But which is the greatest?

Which of our polar opposites require the most energy from each of us?

In my opinion it would be the difference between skeptic's dismissal of anything not tangible and the beliver's subjective acceptance of how the world is when viewed through the filters of our own ever-changing emotions and moods.

The belief (or non-belief) in anything that you can't touch or feel or see or comprehend is one end of the spectrum. The belief that the world works according to your own perception would be at the other end.

How do we reconcile those very different points of view?

Where does religion or faith fit in that context?

When is it permissible to feel a little bit of both ways?

I believe in faith. I believe in love. I believe in other people. Even when the evidence of all of those things may not be there. I believe.

So find your belief today and hang on.

You never know where it will take you.

Love.........
