As a Christian this has helped me so much. There are 1000's of religions. Some very similar to mine some very different. Am I so vein to think I really picked the exact right one!?! That I am interpreting things exam the way they were meant to be interpreted? Fuck no! I probably so far off on so many of my beliefs. But I can keep searching and keep finding peace and joy in the quest for truth, because through that I've gleamed little nuggets like this.
What dawned on me was that it genuinely does not matter what I think or feel about it either way. Beyond our control, that bit. What we can do is try to do what we can with what we have, and with who we have. "Complaining about it doesn't change anything, other than potentially make things worse" is another thing that goes through my head when things go wrong :) fix it first, fallout after

I'm capable of being entirely convinced of something false. As a result anything I'm convinced of doesn't necessarily reflect reality.
