Faith Begins...

What would bring one

to the conviction there

must be more to life than

just existing - or, for that

matter, the possibility

of the existence of a

higher power?

If you are not a moral being

simply not believing in good

or evil, right or wrong, one

would not consider any

religious path.

On the other hand, one can be

a just person without any

religious influences.

In every person's life, sooner or

later, you are confronted with

a cross-road. It might be forced

upon us by a forceful experience

or a gentle realisation.

Whichever way...

My cross-road came as a powerful hurricane

destroying everything imaginable in its path,

during this process I realised I do conceive of

myself as a moral being, therefore there must

be a power behind the good and righteous.

The universe fits together in a unified, harmonious way.

Once I stopped listening to the lies my mind's been telling

me, I made peace with the fact that whatever my limited

concept of a god might be, there is something there:

A force, an energy that holds everything together.

This force is part of the universe, therefore a part of me.

And so, faith begins...
