Our beliefs

Our beliefs can make and unmake us. The manner in which we perceive the world around us determines our freedom and limitations. We ought to examine our beliefs and thoughts processes to check whether they’re in our best interests and that‘d inform us which ones we have to let go and those we have to maintain as well as improve.

As the Greek Philosopher Socrates put it “unexamined life is not worth living”, I think unexamined beliefs are not worth having or holding unto.

May we not be prisoners of ourselves especially in our minds based on unexamined and untested beliefs given to us by others just because we want to maintain the status quo or to please them to the detriment of ourselves.

We have to assess our beliefs on regular basis and have open minds that allows us to learn something new from others even the little ones among us regardless of their socioeconomic status.
