religion according to Webster- "something one believes in and follows devotedly; a point or matter of ethics or conscience"

I'm not talking about your faith.... I'm talking about your religion. Your religion may come from your faith or it may not... what ever it comes from ... find it... and follow it.

I'm not a very religious person, but am becoming more and more religious... I have things that I believe in but not necessarily follow 'devotedly'... like I believe in recycling, eating healthy, giving to charity, trust, friends, enlightenment, forgiveness and family...   but do I display these values in my everyday life?

I would like to say I try to... but do I always?  do I back my ethics with my actions... religiously?

Maybe my life would be better if I were to do that very thing. Not so that others will see how I live my life and want to be like me... but so that I live a happier life... and of course I hope that others will learn to live their life the way they believe and be happy as well.

Maybe for a day... take it a day at a time.. live the life that you want to live. Live how you believe... get enough sleep tonight... read a book... do something that makes you happy... "life is too short to do anything other than what makes you happy" as my very wonderful intelligent best friend once said. I agree. And when you're happy... other things, maybe that are less enjoyable, don't seem too bad...

I'm trying out this happy thing. If it works I'll let you know... or you can try it for yourself...

Oh... but don't expect to be perfect.. expect to fail... but be happy about it... cause that only means you're human and have room to grow. : ]
