I have talked about time before. Time is a construct for us to measure seconds, minutes, hours, days and years. Time itself is finite, as we are. Each of us has been given a set amount of time. What we do with that time is strictly up to us. There is no cheating time and we can’t slow time down. All we can do with is speed it up. We have seen people live like there is no tomorrow. And their life proved the point. Our time is directly correlated to how we live our lives. If we live carefully, we can live a long life. We have all seen people burn out die. So time is consistent and methodical.
The one thing that mankind has is a free will. This free will gives us the choice in everything we do. It doesn’t matter what we get into. We choose that. Having free will isn’t always a blessing. Without understand, free will can become a curse. And we have all experienced that dilemma. So what makes the difference?
Knowledge + Experience = wisdom or understanding. We find out about something, lets say chocolate candy, and we taste the chocolate. I don’t know about you, unless you are allergic to chocolate, I eat chocolate as often as I can. I know chocolate taste good, but it isn’t always good for you. There are people who are addicted to chocolate. So with the understanding of our limitations, we can enjoy the benefits of chocolate.
This brings us to belief. Belief is the wisdom or understanding that knowledge and experience give us. We don’t pursue things that we don’t believe in. When we want something, we pursue or are given the knowledge about that goal. Then we experience that goal and prove the point that we want that. Once we prove the point, we believe in that. Before we even try to obtain a goal, we must believe that it is obtainable. So here is my question. What do you believe in and is it worth the effort?
