“Your beliefs don’t make you a better person, your behavior does.”
So your beliefs do not define who you are – your actions do.
Our beliefs are really just meant to be a heading on
who we are and how we act.
Take religions, for example… What is the point in saying you are a Christian if you don’t live by the principles of Christ?
What is the point in saying you are a Hindu if you don’t live by the principles of Ram and Krishna?
What is the point in saying you are a Buddhist if you don’t live by the principles of Buddha?
What is the point in saying you are a Muslim if you don’t live by the principles of Prophet?
Our beliefs have to be more than something we hang out there in conversation.
If we live our lives defined by our beliefs we probably would not have to tell people what they were, they would see that in all we do.
Do I always get this right? No of course not … but I can honestly say I am much faster at being aware when I don’t; and then I address it.
