The question is not whether or not you’re religious, 

the question is, 

what is it you worship?

Religion, as a system of belief about the ways of the world, is ingrained in all of us.

It’s a set of dogma’s we live by, whether conscious of them or not. 

We need to believe something, in order to navigate and make sense of the world

So the questions remain, what is it that you believe exactly? 

What is it that you’re committing your life to?

In the absence of invoking a deity as such, you’re still invoking, but something else

Your beliefs are very much reflected (and expressed) in how you live your life.

In the choices you make and how you act in the world.

You have come to accept that things just are the way they are

But you still exhibit worship in your daily rituals and routines,

You make decisions about how and on what to spend your time (and money) – this being a reflection of where you place the most value.

So religion in this sense, is alive and well.

The only thing you need to consider, is whether or not you want to choose your dogma – or have the times dictate it to you.

  • Taking your second chance
    It’s pointless, because history will always be confined to history. Instead it may be time to look yourself in the mirror, at the risk of not liking what you see. Because getting it right, means being honest with yourself. It comes with the brutality of having to confront your own demons, And being able and willing to take the hits. So take your second chance. Don’t look back in anger, maintain the hope And be determined to do things a little different.

  • Communication is not a one way street
    Communication is not a one way street. It’s not about talking, it’s about listening. It’s not about reacting, it’s about responding. It’s not about knowing, It’s about understanding. It’s not about judgement or pretense It’s about connection.
  • Leaving it all behind
    Some things are certainly worth holding onto -  Others we just hold onto because we are too afraid to say goodbye.  Not because we can’t But because doing so means facing our own mortality
  • Ahead of the game
    It’s easy to play life on the back foot Always playing defence. Always waiting, always passive, always reactive.
