User blog:CecilAmpora/I. Personal: Belief

I know a lot of people won't read this, but I will still put it out there, since I feel like typing a lot. No idea why. Well, so I have no idea how long this will be. We'll see.

Anyway, to start off, I would like to kind of share my point of view of anything. I am a really open thinker. So, honestly, no matter what it is, I will always go through and look at it, in terms of information I am being told. Now, I then look at the possibility of if that could be true, looking only at personal thoughts first. For example, if someone says there is a "type of magick that...", then I will probably believe them. I mean, I know their are so many different types and versions of magick, so it seems logical to me. Now, if I don't personally believe it, I will step back from it, and run through a couple questions like: "Have I heard of anything like this?", "Does it seem possible, based off all of the stuff that I believe in now?", and "Are they giving me enough information to back this stuff up?". Then based off those answers, I will make my decision on whether I believe the source or not.

If I read "batman is reel cuz i saw him once", then I will probably think that you are bullshitting me, and I won't believe you. But, if you phrase it like "I believe Batman is real. I astral projected myself into a different dimension, and saw that there was an actual Arkham City. While looking around, I saw this figure in black sitting on a building. I flew up there, and saw that there was a person in a costume that is similar to Batman's costume. Of course, it was'nt exactly the same, but it looked really similar." Now, in my honest opinion, if someone told me that story, I am probably going to believe them. And even if they still are bullshitting me, it doesn't matter. I mean, that bit of information that I choose to believe doesn't cause a threat to my life whatsoever. Hell, it doesn't affect my life at all, so it doesn't really matter if I choose to believe that Batman is real or not.

In life, it shouldn't matter about people influencing your beliefs one way or another. If you hear something, and you choose to believe it, then hell! It is true in your eyes. Now, if you were to get proven wrong someone, then you've got proven wrong. That doesn't mean you have to stop believeing it's true.

I mean, certain situations are different. Like, if you are told that your friend died, and you see him the next day, then you probably shouldn't live your life believeing that your friend is dead when you  have seen solid proof that he isn't dead. But, I guess if you still believe it after that, then that is your belief.

Wow. So, I just thought of like a bunch of scenerios that counteract my advice. So don't always take my advice. Bleh. I don't even know anymore. Frick. Alright, I'm out.

Farewell.~
