Why Do you Believe

Why Do You Believe

Why do you believe?
Not anything in particular but rather
why do you believe anything at all

What is the purpose of a Belief?
Is it the exoskeletal frame upon which you build who you claim to be, or do they only form the basis of the disagreement when you argue against beliefs of others

Where do beliefs come from?
Are they spiritually inbred or are they result of a philosophical thought conjured by someone based upon his own beliefs

Dare we question why?
Dare we ponder that question which goes to very essence of our soul.
Dare we make inquiry into that subject whose response could the stories we tell our babies at night

Dare we risk the foundations and fabrics upon which we have built entire kingdoms of thought,palaces of principles and courtyard where we rest comfortably surrounded by perennials planted long ago no longer requiring our care

What is a Belief?
Is it the box to which I am infused which regulates my conduct, thoughts and perceptions ,or Is it the external universe that calls me to launch out on the belief that it beckons me to discover that which I never knew but which cried out for me to come

Why do I believe? I think I know but decline to say. Some questions are not to be answered just pursued.
