Trying to stay in touch with the world while sharing my adventure, posting some photographs and recording my thoughts.

What we all believe in.

And I am thinking positives here, 
 
Today is Sabbath for my hosts, my parents in law-ish, that I am staying with and I had absolutely no problem joining them in taking it extremely easy for a day.  Not working, or shopping, or planning… just living in the present moment, and that got me thinking (and talking).  Most of us (as humans) believe in something… all different things.  Some of them are simple things, like the “Toyota Hilux is the best 4×4 ute” or the “World is flat” (<-Not that I believe any of these, just saying, hypothetically speaking).  While other beliefs are far more serious like where we go after this life and “who” we perceive to be God.  I have certain beliefs too, small things like trying to do good and seeing the good in other people and I also believe in meditation and how we are all connected, somehow, through (shall we call it) “energy” and that stepping out of the way of the “universe” is a good thing… living in the present moment.  
 
I know this “Note to Self” can carry on forever, but I am just trying to capture some emotions regarding a conversation I had today.  If I take everything into account, what I believe in, to a large extend, could be called a religion.  Not that I have a specific place of worship or think about starting a war or collecting money, but comparing it to many other religions and people of faith that I know, it is close to a religion.  Am I okay with that?  Yes, I think so… and like my own “religion”, I have a lot of respect for other people’s religion (or what ever they believe in) and thus respect just about anyone on earth since I started the blog post writing “Most of us (as humans) believe in something…”  Where am I going with this?
 
Remember who you are and what you want to be and respecting others… all others.  Be that change and not complain about everything.  Just be that change…  (The photo I posted here I took yesterday, while working outside and thinking thermal flying) Awesome sky.

    “Remember who you and what you want to be” – need to remind myself every now and then …

    Awesome sky indeed – Mother Nature never ceases to Amaze!
