The world is cold. Heartless machinery. People as fuel for markets.
So how do you get out of bed?
I live religiously. Without religion.
Forgiveness. Humility. Faith. I practice them all. Daily. Not because a pastor told me to. Because I have to.
Religion became dogma. One book. One truth. Division as control.
But the original teachers? They just wanted to live well. Connected to something bigger.
I can't subscribe to one religion when I'm surrounded by a library of wisdom.
So I take what works. From everywhere.
I pray. Find gratitude. Do it religiously even when I don't feel like it.
That's how I stay functional in a dysfunctional world.
