As we travel through everyday experiences and time, we sometimes encounter the most elaborate, overwhelming, intricately designed obstacles. These matters often leave us perplexed and wondering about everything we have been told and what we once thought we knew...until we know better...

Life is a force, designed by science and energy. When we add the unique belief of spirituality and come to an acceptance of our reality, we develop our own reasoning for who we are, why we are here, and where we might go afterwards. When we reach our own conclusion and individual philosophy, free from the binds of common everyday religions, we find true enlightenment and inner peace, in the name of what we perceive as God.

Religion is not about how we see God. In truth, religion is an indoctrination of history, science, and metaphysics. Belief, however, should never be based upon what we're told, but instead our very own, uniquely individual spirit.

As different as we appear to be, we are very much the same. As varied in what we believe in, we are all intrinsically and inherently derived from one, omnipotent, universal origin. How we were created and why we were created remains as questionable as debatable to most, while vigorously researched and passionately reflected upon by many.

There is no one religious belief. There is no need to fight over who's religion is right and which god is better. In fact, if there is such an omnipotent spirit as a god, or goddess, such an entity would never condone or allow such chaotic and hateful acts of violence, regardless of the heated and passionate reasoning.

The following listed are unequivocal, undeniable, universal, unified beliefs:

1.) Every living being comes to this world and eventually dies.

2.) We do not know exactly what happens to us after we pass over but we do know that we physically leave our physical body as we know it.

3.) Love is the rich soil needed to plant a magical garden in our hearts, as love is what makes our enchanting and colorful world so beautiful.

4.) A life filled with our own unique beliefs and philosophy is a life filled with spiritual harmony and understanding.

Live. Learn. Grow. Enlighten. Embrace the love, spirit, and energy force that you have come to know or will eventually know upon deep reflection. Then let others live, learn, and grow as they are meant to do. Only then will you truly become enlightened.
