Yeah finally after a long time, I came back to write a brief reflection. Please keep on reading: D
It is important to know what we believe for everything we do.
Many people today do not really know what they're doing. What they do may only be based on the box of everyday culture, or just merely routine. Not everyone knows what the purpose and basis of what they're doing exactly.
We are what we believe. Who we are in others sight will appear from what we believe. Most of the activities and thoughts we think about will explain to whom and what we believe. That's why without any belief, we would never get a direction into a purpose driven life.
In the world that filled with advanced technology, it is very difficult to sit back and reflect on our basic beliefs. We are busy with various jobs, as well with the technology facilities everyday such as mobile phone, Facebook, Twitter, etc, so that eventually we will just go with the flow without having had time to contemplate about the meaning of life. Most of us probably believe in God and regularly going every week to church and doing other religious activities. But it is not enough to depict exactly what we truly believe.
As a comparison, let us look at the people who regularly perform religious activities in obedience, and he who conducts charitable activities. We see them as a religious person and devout, but when we asked them about their basic purpose for doing it, they can not necessarily explain the purpose of what they do. They will say, because it is the demands of religion, or it has become their identity in the public eye. The answers are very shallow and unfulfilled for our spiritual souls which is continuously searching for purpose and the correct answer of the highest goal of a human life.
