I believe that everyone, is in essence, energy. But that energy without memory or physicality, is only ever aware of the present moment. We need our brains to give our minds a space to save our experiences, and then with that we can form humanistic thoughts. We need our bodies to be able to do. This belief has mostly come from dancing. I guess it’s kind of a dancer thing, since that’s how the art is conducted. It becomes art instead of simply movement when you move with energy and intention. When I’m in that state of mind, everything becomes liquid and natural and right. Everything fits.
I don’t believe when you die your soul retains all of your past knowledge. I think that part of your self is left behind in your body.
But I do believe you, the energy you, leaves. I don’t know what you do or where you go. But you’re just energy, conscious of only the current, at least at that current point.
I believe that science is a belief. It’s believing that the only reality is that which can be measured and proven logically. I think it can get us far: look how far already. But only so far. I think there are things we can’t measure with our instruments. Or, at least, haven’t created an instrument to measure it by. I think it discredits processes like intuition. But this is because I’ve grown up around people that have known things they shouldn’t, by current scientific standards, have known. And people that, who think logically and logically only, discredit them.
I do, however, admire the true scientists ability to admit error. That’s a strength not a lot of people have.
I don’t believe in violence of any kind. But I do understand how, when anger has you hot, you can want some.
I believe people have to be able to hear their own selves, and follow their own passions. That if more people were let to or able to do this, we’d have many more brilliant minds.
I believe people need to let go of the “importance” of skin color, and celebrate the varity.
I believe traditions and cultures should be respected, and fervently challenged.
I believe that rules should only be enforced with the intention of protecting the reason behind the rule. The example I use is a stop sign. Someone who doesn’t technically “stop”—their wheel is rolling forward, barely, or who doesn’t stop “long enough”, as long as they used the stop sign to keep from rolling out in traffic, to check the other intersecting roads, and to have control over the vehicle, then they are fine. That someone who does technically stop, but stares straight ahead and goes without awareness of their surroundings is far more dangerous.
This goes for any system: as soon as the system becomes more important than the reason and intention behind the system, the system needs to go.
I believe that SATs need to go. They never even started out with a good intention. Started by some prestigous-college-heads who believed in Eugenics. The intelligence tests they modelled them after had proven to test only hard logic, and favor the middle class white American male. True story. And now it’s just a money game. Colleges who take the SAT score still even admit they don’t know what it’s testing.
I believe that Global Warming is a serious issue we need to take seriously. That we shouldn’t have hold ups because big businesses are lobbying to keep themselves in power.
I believe that meaning is more important than happiness.
…is that enough belief for you? Maybe too much, haha. But those are some of my philosophies. Enjoy.
