Was having a conversation with some friends...we came about the subject of different religions, spirituality and beleifs....I mentioned how I have learned that no matter what you beleive in...it all starts from within, not from some higher power, being, entity, God, etc. You need to beleive in yourself or have some hope to want to turn to one of above mentioned, therefore, it starts with yourself. If you are troubled, its actually the strength and conviction in yourself that makes you go on and get through things, not some higher power. Yes you may turn to something else for strength and conviction but if you, yourself doesnt have any in the first place, to turn to something else, for those attributes, then where would you be? Nowhere...you will stay stuck in your situation, usually a negative one. They say that God helps those who want to help themselves. Right there shows you...you need to beleive in yourself before beleiving in anything else. Also, when something positive happens, you thank a higher power, etc., but really, you should be thanking yourself. People dont give themselves enough credit in this world and depend on people, places and things in order to feel happy. They also depend on joining groups, clubs, organizations, etc., to feel as if they belong or even feel alive or exist. Those people in charge of those organizations, clubs or groups want you to feel this way, which is the worst part of it all. It gives them power and control over others. I am not talking about all organizations, etc are like this, but most. Does anyone get this? Or am I alone? You come first. If anyone tells you otherwise...dont listen to them. We are our worst enemy or we are our own best friend. Its our choice. You need to love yourself before you can show anyone else love...including some higher power.
