Kuma wa kuruma o unten shite imasu!
Life is a bear. A big, ferocious, fuzzy thing to wrestle til we die. A years and years long search for truth and answers that we can never find. And everyone thinks they have them, answers, truth, whatever. A few years ago I heard the concept of "your truth" and laughed at it. How can there be more than one truth? The truth is a fixed point, right? Nah, not always. Sometimes it is measured on a very personal and individual scale. That's why what's right for you might not be right for me. But we still try to force others into our own little boxes. We want them neatly packaged and tied up with pretty little bows in just the way that suits ourselves. It is easy to forget that people have their own paths that might be completely different from anything you experienced or even considered. And that can be perfectly ok, for them, even if it's not for you.
What I'm getting at is that I'm done with boxes. I want to live my life and find my truths and purposes and answers.
This is not me leaving my faith. It is, however, me being done with squelching out my own personality and thoughts and ideas for what someone else thinks my faith should look like.
At some point along the way, I had lost sight of my path and started following someone else's trail markings. Im done with that now.
