With great power comes great responsibility.
![]() I also have it on very good authority that it's a long way to the top if you want to rock and roll. |

This thread idea is great I've got so many things to say,
Umm Many people I know too often tried to tell me to be balanced without knowing what balance is. Being in balance has nothing to do with compromising nor it is about making peace nor it is about being pragmatic. Balance is first and foremost about knowing what is right from what is wrong and the effort to strive to do what is right consistently not without failing but without failing to acknowledge the wrong done. Religion is not an object worthy of worship and it's even blasphemous to worship one's religion. The point in being a member of a religion is to enjoy the support one needs in building a relationship with God. Yet no one can come to God unless God comes to him or her first. It's a grave mistake to stay a confused believer. To believe is to know what you believe. That means believer must see the proof of their faith in their life by seeing what's written in their holy texts becoming alive in their life. To know the God whom one worships is the purpose of being religious failing which the whole effort can be considered to be in vain and to have failed. God is not far He's inside each of us. He is not there in some places far away. A whisper of our thought and a shadow of our emotion is a loud voice to Him. Direct your prayer inside. (No we 're not God, if you think that you're nuts). People often believe they are communicating with God in prayer. Many people think the process would become easier if they concentrate somehow hoping God would listen easier when they focus their mind. What most people don't realize is that ALL people are ALWAYS in CONSTANT prayer with the Almighty. There's no a fraction of second that goes without God's knowing of EVERYTHING and that includes us the whole being inside out. Thus We communicate with God when we commit sin or doing good, when we are sad or happy or when we are jealous or in love. God is much more intimate than our lover. So through that God knows each individual that He always knows each of us better than we know ourselves. We are always in prayer the whole lifetime including when we're dreaming while asleep. Thus our prayer is our attitude towards life. This connection doesn't even cease when one descends to the world of the dead. Only there the dead lose their realization of God but not the other way around. If you believe something is impossible you're making it that. If you truly believe something possible then it is. There's nothing worse than limiting your potential with your own false beliefs. The smallest prison is the cell made by our own false beliefs and false mindset and fear. Many of the world's problems would be solved if people would stop pretending. That is to stop pretending that they know when they are not, to stop pretending they are wise when they are not, to stop pretending that they are worthy to judge others while they are not, to stop pretending they are leaders when in fact they are not. People must be able to measure themselves before they measure any problem or anybody in life. Failing which they will add to the problems or even becoming one than becoming solution they think they are. Being a fool is being in irony. When one realizes that he is one he in that moment ceases being one until he forgets that he is one.
