I will post this here at the risk of being the most down voted comment of all time but here we go: Read the bible, get to know Jesus. Not a religion or religious path, Jesus the man and the God. Pray and ask Him who you really are in your own eyes and in His eyes. Then, simply Love others as yourself and Him above all else. I personally took this journey many years ago when I was going through a very dark time. I was very unhappy with it all, despite having a good job, a great wife, an amazing daughter, family support and all. I lived religion for many years previous to that and tried to be a good man, going to church and following the do/don't routine. Not until I searched for a relationship with Jesus and asked him to show me who I really am, was I able to live a fulfilling life of purpose. If you feel like it we can talk more in depth about all this and I can tell you my story. DM me on twitter and we'll connect @djbelieny
- jotjotzzz 9y agoThere's religion and there's spirituality. Aim to be more spiritual and less religious. Having a connection with God, Source, Universal Force, whatever you call it is spirituality. Quoting Bible verses and judging others based on a book is religious righteousness.
- djbelieny 9y agoI wouldn't say quoting Bible verses is religious righteousness as much as quoting any other book. As for judging I agree with you 100%. That's why "Love others as yourself" is one of my favorite passages. How can you possibly judge someone differently or "more righteously" than anyone else if you love them as yourself. Love Inception ;)
- chevas 9y agoI'll easily vouch for this.
