as we pray and give alms to the ones we love, we do not question the action. we give without thinking. it was never about giving them, it was always about making us feel better because if we believe there is life after death, maybe we'll be less afraid to confront it.

the truth does not really matter in religion because we need something to hold on to. something to believe in. we need to think that there is a place for us after we pass this journey. we need to think that life will continue. we need strength.

come to think of it, if there ever was proof and absolute in religion, it wouldn't be called believing, it wouldn't be called faith. right?
