The problem, what I believe, of so many people loosing faith of some sort could be explained by this quote, "When someone is thirsty, give them half a cup of water. If they remain thirsty, quench their thirst with the remaining half."

Now of course, this will tie in very well.



Unfortunately, many people nowadays march the streets claiming to be enlightened because of something they read or saw that gave a glimpse into some unknown knowledge.

Life is complicated already as it is, and with misleading information or misinterpreted information, finding faith in yourself can be much difficult.

When one is working hard to be good, evil is working just as hard against them.

What I've learned on my own as well as what I have been taught, is to be kind to all, even your "enemies", and nothing of this world created by man is worthy of worship. I'm just trying to live my life by this and lead others if they seek the same by proper example.

I do believe the teachings and parables of Jesus to be an unquestionable source of truth as I reflect on my life with these lessons. And as I search for answers to life, a strong sense of humility comes over me and joy and urge to seek forgiveness when I receive these answers (I don't always find these answer right away). I've done nothing wrong in a sense of crime and law of this world, but if the examples of Jesus' life and what he overcame and shared with others portrays the definition of what we are capable of, than that's something I cannot argue against and want to be a part of.

....I guess... it's love. Compassion. You just get that feeling and "no one" can tell you other wise.

Compassion for all I meet is how I try to live and that's the small amount I fill the cup with to share with others.
