Belief...

What is it? Why do we focus so much on this word and why does it matter so much on the planet we live on?

 The word itself comes in different sizes, types, sects and packages. Upon hearing it, every one of us places it into his/her own chain of thoughts. Some take it directly towards the religion they follow, while the rest handle the word with their own world of perceptions. What I have seen until now, belief can take a lot more  forms than just one. It can be not only used as merely the synonym for acceptance, it means a lot more than that. For some of us, belief isn’t just believing in something, it’s a shining ray of hope, trust and ofcourse, commitment!

I, for an individual, have never given much thought about beliefs except the belief of religion. I believe in a singular God and that He’s the bearer of all powers there are. You can make a person walk or talk or see again, but as a human being, you cannot create anything He can. You can make a plant or an organ grow artificially, but you cannot entitle someone a life neither you have the right to take one!

So how does a belief work? 

Well you don’t just commit to something overnight, right? You go through changes, new phases, experiments and learning to obtain a solid ideology to stand upon. For instance, once you are born, the first person who comes to aid you is your own mum. She feeds you, cleans you, helps you sleep and makes you stop crying your voice box out. She never fails to miss this routine and cares for you every second of the day and gradually you start to rely on her. You count on her that she‘ll be there for when you want food or when you need a diaper change! You start to believe in her…                               

You unintentionally make a connection so strong that even when you are reading this at a ripe age, you still depend on her for making your life, life!

My point being, we come to believe on something when we see a proof, a sighting, an experience which turns the table for our thoughts and mentality.
For that we need to genuinely make up our mind to hold on to it when we see something truthful and come to believe on it..
