I don't consider myself a religious person. I don't pray every day, or fast once a week, or go to temple every week. In fact, if you were to ask me what are the principles or tenets or "rules" of Hinduism (of which I was raised in), I'll be the first to admit that I have been short in my learnings. I DO know that Hindus belief in reincarnation and that the so-called idols/statues that we pray to are symbols of the ABSOLUTE or THE ONE i.e. God.
Despite my profession of being non-religious, I DEFINITELY do belief in God. Yes! Of this I am certain. Don't ask me why or how....I just know that deep in my heart, God exists. It's something that I can't explain and won't attempt to do so. I just know that God has always been there whenever I'm in trouble or when I'm conflicted, or when I'm happy, or simply when I am crazy.
You can call me a theist, a person who believes in the existence of God. While I know of some people who may disagree with what I have said...to me....whether I define myself as a Hindu or Taoist or Christian, does not matter. All that is important is that I know that God is here. Of this I am certain!!
This may be an unusual entry in my blog but somehow, I just felt like I needed to write this when I came across the picture above. I smiled when I read it, and it reminded me...or rather, it assured me that God is always there, watching over us, whether we believe or not.
