Dear God

I do not like to believe in you, like a believer would
I do not believe in retribution of any kind that you meet out
I do not believe in heaven or hell
I do not believe in the churches, mosques, the temples to be places where they secretly hold you and your grace
I do not believe that I was born dark, lame or blind because you decided so
I do not believe that you allow some to be born poor and wise and some to be rich and brash
I do not believe in any kind of exclusivity not even for you

yet
I believe in the kindness I feel towards everything in the world
I believe it is easy to love than dislike or hate for I feel much lighter in love
I believe it is easy to forgive and forget than to carry it all in memories
I believe I love laughter and then the tears when I see something good, when I am taken by surprise with the goodness the world holds
I believe that my fears are real, as long as they are there, and that they can vanish as soon as I feel cared for, supported
I believe that world is round, the richness of everyone's good deeds comes searching
I believe that the hurtful deeds that I committed will always come back to me and I try to make it up at times with a hug, an apology or a kiss, and never with prolonged silence; I try to work on myself all the time, for I believe it is easier said than done!
I believe that for some people it is easy to be trusting, loving and caring and I will not deny the unacceptable parts of me, for it allows me to be gentle with the world
I believe that it is much easy to  accept the vexations of my spirit than to constantly worry about the worlds'
I believe life can be lived simply taking in all the above said beliefs
I believe it is not easy if it does not naturally flow, and for it to be natural I have to face the rain, the sun, the winds, some times unsheltered, some times sheltered, accept the brokenness the world brings,
I believe letting go is not when I stop caring, but it just means that I care enough to allow freedom to happen in the same way as a river flows, sun shines at my window
I believe life is in about allowing nature to take its course, whether it is ageing, whether it is in clearing away your notions of permanence and change
I believe that no single belief is enough to sustain me through that dark and lonesome night of mine, that I have to constantly empty my methods in handling emptiness and life
I believe that I just have to go through everything that comes my way with head held in one place- right above my shoulders, heart pulsating and mind alert and know that this too shall pass, even it seems neigh difficult in that moment, life has shown me, it indeed passes and never promises the same old journey!
