Sometimes I wonder why do I pray? Is it because, I don't have the confidence in myself to achieve what I want? Is it because I don't want to be completely responsible for the consequences of my actions? Or is it because I lack the strength to face a situation on my own?
Do I pray because I need hope to survive? I can sleep peacefully at night knowing that there's someone more powerful than us mortals, who is going to take care of the things for me. Is this escapism? Does this mean I am running away from my own life? Does this mean I am weak? Is it ok to be weak in front of god and still retain self-respect?
Do I pray because, it has become a habit? Is it a default action? Do I genuinely believe in god or its just a way to fool myself?
Do I pray because, I am afraid of god punishing me for not praying?
Do I pray for something because I genuinely believe that its beyond my deserving, and hence ask for divine intervention? If that is the case, then is it right to pray for it?
Am I losing my religion?
Oh no! I have said too much.
That was just a dream,
Just a dream, just a dream....

To feel the guiding strength of my father
To remember the lessons of goodness taught to me by my mother
