Been a while since the last time I write a blog. :D :D
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.
When I think about it, I became increasingly aware that beliefs which we hold unto have a strong linkage with meaningfulness of life. When we truly believe what we believe, know the true and truly live it, we will find direction and purpose of our lives. Life will be meaningful and filled with passion because we truly know what we are doing for. And attitudes like this will ultimately lead to a vision that affect the people around. We can see people who have great influence in the world has always had in common: they live with a purpose, because they know what they are doing. They live with enthusiasm and depend not by the conditions and environment.
I created this article for merely reflection of our fast-paced technological era, where people are difficult to be in silence. Let us think together what we believe today, and pray for God's guidance to encourage us to enter into a life based on a highest belief of God the great Creator of the universe . In him is all purpose and meaning of life in this world resides. :)
