Beliefs

What do you believe? This is an important question but one that few ever consider. Instead, they just accept what is given to them as if it is law. Sadly, society has a way of misleading people into doing things that make them unhappy.

Blind Faith

Many engage in blind faith. I feel dogma is dogma no matter who is issuing it. Many will swallow all the rules that others put forth without even a thought if it makes sense. The religions of the world have survived based upon this ideal for centuries. Of course, the governments of the world are no different. Blind adherence to any type of dogma is dangerous.

Those who cannot think for themselves are bound to live as slaves. We see people do destructive things all the time in the name of faith. Take the suicide bombers. Here is a group of people who are willing to blow themselves up for a cause which promises eternal happiness. Perhaps they do receive the eternal life they are seeking. However, is it worth end one's life here on a supposition? Obviously not.

Question

The solution to this ailment is to question all that you believe. Why do you think the way that you do? Is it because you consciously chose a particular path or is it because someone taught you this was 'correct'? This process is crucial to breaking the stranglehold that others have upon you.

Beliefs lie at the center of all we do. To not question our beliefs is to engage in a life that is not our own. Under these circumstances we are at the folly of others. As shown, society has a way of injecting into us what we should believe. Those who stray from the norm are ostracized in ways designed to bring them back in line. This conditioning starts as a child and lasts throughout our entire lives. The key is to stop it as soon as you are aware of what is occurring. Now is the time for you.

Freedom is something that everyone should value. Sadly, few do. Become one of the elite in terms of taking over your own life. Living according to the edicts of others is slavery. Most everyone we encounter is a slave. This is the opportunity for you. Being different is a way to break free from the norm. All cultures love those who excel. Following the traditional dogma will result in mediocrity. Jump start your life by questioning all that is going on.
