Here is a thought about belief systems. They are the things that give meaning to our existence but should they be set on stone or flexible?

Each have their advantages and disadvantages, if your belief system is set in stone then you will have the feeling of more control in life. "Being kind is good, therefore I will do kind things to become good". Fulfilling this gives you a goal, a purpose

And it's the same with religion, careers, love and etc, it can be as simple or as complex as possible but having a concrete belief gives you a purpose and that's one of the most powerful and comforting things in existence

But anything powerful is double edged and some people take these belief systems too far because it's the only thing they can depend on and people change with time so staying on the same concrete belief when you are different can be bad for you

It gives you purpose, not necessirly happiness. Flexible belief systems are self explanatory, they change depending on the situation, you, time, a million variables. And some people are more flexible than others. While it's less dangerous it lacks ultimate purpose

Wow that was a lot of gibberish, just thoughts I guess
