Its all about FAITH!!

I have this conversation with God every single day .... very private.. very personal.... its my way of what is called 'praying'. Am not the sort who regularly goes to temples to worship the Deity but i respect and worship HIM in my own way!

I have this friend , a very sweet girl, who prays to her 'Allah' religiously.
Am sure each of us do it in our strong way!

Recently heard a few educated minds talk on Religion. 'Religion' as per the dictionary goes is- the belief in and worship of a superhuman controlling power esp a personal God or Gods.
So does it really matter who or which Lord i worship and how???
Shouldn't it completely be an individual choice especially in a country like ours that claims to be the biggest 'free-will' nation!

We don't choose our religion, we are born with it. And, even if we do at a later stage why should it raise so many eyebrows?? All religions preach Goodness and humanity. A particular religion may appeal to me more than the others... Nothing so gravely wrong in it!!
A good man, at the end of the day ,is a Good man! Why judge him on aspects so irrelevant!

Sad that something as simple and private as 'religion' is today the cause of terror and a million innocent lives! What is even more unfortunate is that most of us who claim to be the sensible, educated lot somewhere draw a line between them.
High time we understand that a 'prayer' offered in any which language, attire or way is nothing but the most sincere form of that individual's faith.... faith in God and his Religion.
And the least we can or rather should do is RESPECT it!!

I soo sincerely hope that a day will come when people look for their child a bride/groom who is not a hindu or muslim bt just someone very nice!! :) I definitely will..when the time comes!! :)

Be it 'bindi' or 'hijab'......... Christ or Allah...... Lets just all live in peace and have nothing but goodwill for everyone around!! :)..... That is what the Gods really want us to do!! :))

CHEERS!!! :)
