What do I believe?
I believe that life is, but that life is no more meaningful than not-life. Life is to be enjoyed, to be endured. It is, and it passes, and that is natural.
I believe that we are self-aware, but blind. Okay, not necesarily blind, but visually impaired. We see poorly, when we see at all. There is so much we don't see, that we can't possibly see - and it is reasonable that we don't need to see it all. Our capacity is limited by our nature. Limited is, of course, a judgment that is relative. Perhaps we are free within our nature, and so limitations become less relavant. Also to be considered is the fact that we may not fulfill the potential of our natures because of external conditions and effects. It seem's that we are not free within our own natures, but mabye freedom is also a judgement that is relative. Are we free within our limitations, conditions, and nature?
Rambling thoughts - the stuff of beliefs. But how often are we aware of how rambling our beliefs may be?
