Experience & Belief

EXPERIENCE & BELIEF


This life is experiential
It is an experience
And to fully live it
One must truly experience it
On their own terms
Therefore –
My experience of life will be
Completely different
From anyone else’s
And anyone else’s
Different from mine
Because
Mine is based on my experiences
Vice versa
One cannot compare lives
They are each entities
Unto themselves
Each person’s experience
Is personal
Your life is yours
My life is mine
It’s that simple
Yes –
Experiences may mix and mingle
I meet someone new
They become part of my experience
Of life
But
It doesn’t change the facts –
It is my experience
The same can be said for belief-
My beliefs are a part
Of my experience
Therefore-
What does it matter to anyone else
What I believe?
We each have
    Our own
        Experience
Therefore-
    We each have
        Our own
            Beliefs

What’s so wrong with that?

How could I possibly have
The same beliefs
As you
When I am so obviously
Not having
The same experience as you?
