Let’s talk about beliefs. There is a difference between a belief and a fact. But sometimes we get caught up in believing our belief system as fact. It is so ingrained into who we are that if we go against it we feel shame and guilt. But where do these beliefs come from? And why do we choose to believe them? A belief is an opinion or conviction. It may be something we feel strongly about, but others may not. It can be a personal belief, or one society has created. Either way, we can find ourselves living a life according to what society tells us to believe, even when some beliefs don’t sit right with our soul.
