" Give me something to believe in..." - The Bravery

When it comes to my career religion is a huge issue. The religion of the families plays a key role in deciding final arrangements for an individual. Also, my religious beliefs could impact my career and the families I have the chance to work with.  

As of right now, I do not identify with one religion.  I identify with several. My believes coincide with some of the beliefs of  Buddhism, Christianity, Creationism, and probably some others that I haven't been able to explore. Mostly I try to believe in what I believe in. I know this is extremely vague but I listen around, learn what I can, and remember all the things I agree with.  I do disagree with a lot but that's not to say that I don't mind when others agree with the issues I disagree with. 

In an attempt to come up with one definitive answer, I looked around and found the notion of coexisting.    Coexistence is all accepting. It's the belief that we can all live amongst each other in the most civil way as possible. It's impossible to live in perfect harmony but we can do our best to educate each other on our personal beliefs in an appropriate way. We don't shun or get angry with those who disagree with us, we just accept that they believe in something different. Of course, this is still complicated but what isn't when dealing with religion? 

So, basically, I coexist. I believe what I want and those who come to my funeral home won't be discouraged to  express their religions freely.

I like when people "give me something to believe in." They are comfortable with their beliefs and I extract what I agree with and write it down in my mental belief notebook.
