March is Here!

Everybody follows somebody. All of us make decisions every day about what is important, how to treat people, and what to do with our lives. These decisions come from what we believe about every aspect of our existence. And we got our beliefs from somewhere. We have been formed, every one of us, by this complicated mix of people and places and things. Parents and teachers and artists and scientists and mentors - we are each taking all of these influences and living our lives according to which teachings we have made our own. SOme insist that they aren't influenced by any person or any religion, that they think for themselves. And that's an honorable perspective. The problem is they got that perspective from...somebody. They're following somebody even if they insist it is themselves they are following.

Everybody is following somebody.

Everybody has faith in something and somebody.

We are all believers.
-Rob Bell

Who are you following? Who is your faith in? What do you believe?

Today, I think it's worth considering...you are who you are, right now. Don't make apologies, just be who you are and move forward towards something better. It should be as simple as that.
