We are born free then society, books, parents, media...etc try to imprison our minds and limit our thoughts. I only found peace when I questioned the preset "guidelines" handed down to me. Then came research and so on. I didn't have a traumatic event that made me question the faith I was given.
But it all started with a Question that led to another and so on.
I will never stop questioning
Your feedback helps sarahgamal understand what's working
A 32 mother of 2 .
When I was feeling low things took an unexpected change. A red light just waiting to turn green, so I could go a different way. Yet not far ahead the sign says stop No worries another path opens up.
Fly away, fly away, Up to the baby blue skies. Roam free, wander astray, But never wait for the surprise. The power of true hope, The first start of something old.
Iβm trying to find something to base my life upon, Something in this strange world that goes on and on. As the years go by and time fades away, What used to be βgood daysβ are now filled with dismay.
Waiting. But I think time is standing still. I'm dreaming. Yet I seem to wake up unfulfilled. I fear the unknown. But can't wait till it's shown. Should I take those first steps.
Don't think, speak Don't speak, shout Don't shout, scream Don't scream, be Don't be, be everything You can possibly be Don't sit, walk Don't walk, run Don't run, sprint Don't sprint, jump Don't...
"It's that moment when you know your not a sad story." _________________________ I have sobbed, in the simple joy of my life. I have screamed, having nowhere left to contain my happiness.
The game of life is made. The characters we do create. The divine intervention of new feelings. The invention of new words and meanings. New followers and a new believing. A new felt inner being.
So, you're 18 and society asks you...what do you want to do for the rest of your life. You stop and you think, who am I. Right now you are finding yourself.
πππ some seem to fear questions.. It's usually the structures that won't withstand scrutiny, logic or free thought π
@Burrfoot I noticed... Wanted really to continue with comments on Sammie's post. But looks like subject was closed. But if we stop questioning then what are we really? Irony is in all religions tell you to think, read and learn. Don't have the exact places where it was mentioned BUT I know they were
@sarahgamal I think the problem is that they ask you to question but don't like being questioned if doesn't lead to you becoming a believer. That said life is one big question and mystery which hopefully science will answer and prove, as a human race it's often difficult for enquiring minds to believe without concrete proof! ππβ€
@sammielee46 or maybe the ask u to question to free urself ? I just find it's just it. Won't dwell and ruin ur outing at the bar... Damn I missed that one π
@sarahgamal I don't know, it's a very deep subject, I know I've asked many a question and they always have an answer but a very wooly one. But with all of the wars and crises that are occurring at the moment it only strengthens my beliefs against god I'm afraid! π’ Oh come on sarah lets go now πππ
Please please all of you add pages titled "inform yourselves" and "exposing the truth" they are ones of many that go on to explain a lot of what were thinking! They even go a far as saying religion is a tool created to invent war and blind the masses! It's very interesting stuff!!!
@HingAling24 thank u but I think I will stick to what I have for now. Think I passed this stage. But thanks for the info π
@sarahgamal that's cool just a suggestion "religion" isn't even one of the main topics of debate it's more politics and brainwashing πππ
@sarahgamal hope you're coping belle πͺπͺ societies have crumbled and been decimated because of religion... Now that culture has progressed to a stage where some have the opportunity to question their god we are branded as aggressive or bullies... Or worse still, god forbid I offend someone with sarcasm π³π mankind will never be free while we can blame god or use religion as a shield.
@Burrfoot up and down still here π not a lot of people went down on Cairo sadly. We'll see how it goes ππ
