Believing.

Fate is a word that a lot of people associate with God. As is the word faith. But to me these words are important, and not because of this association. I'm not a follower of him and I don't believe I ever will be. I want to believe in something greater than the human race but believing in him just doesn't make logical sense to me with all the scientific evidence pointing otherwise.

But fate is something I can believe in, I can have faith in fate. There has to be some greater plan in life, we can't all be wondering around aimlessly. I mean we all have aims, great or small, but how do we get there from our simple thought patterns into life.

Another thing that deters me greatly from the whole God perspective is the rate of natural disasters in the world at the moment. How can people who believe that God 'loves all his sons and daughter', reason with what is going on in the world.

I've got to believe in something, or what do I have? What do any of us have? Everyone would have something or someone guiding them, whether is is God or simply an ideology of how they want there life to be pushing them towards a brighter future. I don't think it is possible not to believe, and therefore I do.

Believe in yourself - in the power you have to control your own life, day by day, Believe in the strength that you have deep inside, and your faith will help show you the way. Believe in tomorrow and what it will bring, let a hopeful heart carry you through, things will work out if you trust and believe -there's no limit to what you can do!

That poem was given to my Mother from my Auntie. I forget the author, but I always remember the words.
