it depends on what is meant by "belief". some people might say they believe in justice, they believe in helping their fellow humans. in this way my values are trully central to my life, I could even say that my values are more important to me than any specific human being because even if my best friend becomes a person who acts in a way that goes against my values (for example if he steals from someone or double-crosses someone) I will abandon this friend in a second. as for the other meaning of "beliefs", like believing in god, in magic, in tarot, in ghosts, in ufo's, all those things are completely irrelevant to me and I consider all these things to be silly superstitions.

@TheunderdogofNY thank you, I appreciate your comment. I do really try to answer questions the best I can, its nice when someone appreciates it.
What do you think? If you don't know what you believe, or why, you'll fall for anything.

Living inauthentically is like leaving home without your soul.

Some people float down the river of time, allowing it to take them where it may, and then wonder how they ended up there - others paddle with intention, and find their destinations.

I just enjoy life no matter my beliefs
