to believe - and it's this that often keeps us limited to a life confined by it's conditions. What we believe is just a story told, first by others and then oft repeated to ourselves. Some may well serve, but unexamined even the best belief confine us to the influence of the past. This moment, here where we find ourselves now, is infinite in it's scope of possibilities. We are free. And even in the introduction of a world filled by beliefs - we remain free within this moment. Although we may believe otherwise. There's no method to remain free, no effort to regain the original grace of our innocence. As well, there's no need to disregard a single belief that may have gained our favor. Our only role is to hold beliefs lightly, to examine what may serve as a proving ground of truth, or let go as a function we're no longer meant to hold. In this way, it's not really a choice of beliefs we may wish to own or disregard - once seen in the light of examination, an inquiry of our own open nature, everything flows without need of our direct participation. Life in service to itself. Our own best belief is always towards mystery.
