That which you see and hear today can cast doubt on your commitment to your values. If you respond to this with a constructive investigation, you may discover that there are entire worlds of knowledge and spirituality that you have not yet explored. This can be a good time to question your most deeply held beliefs, because your naturally inquisitive nature can help you make the most of your curiosity. You can avoid many of the difficulties usually associated with the growth process today by connecting with teachers and other wise individuals who can steer you toward a path of analysis that provides you with the tools you need to expand your perspective.

Our beliefs are strongest when they can stand up to critical scrutiny without flagging. Many people avoid questioning their long held notions concerning spirituality and morality because they are afraid that their resolve will waver. The truth, however, is that focused inquiry strengthens our resolve by showing us that we can trust in our intuition and our impressions. When it turns out that we were wrong, the same internal force that empowered us to embark upon a journey of self discovery will both help us cope with this realization and provide us with the courage to start out on a new path. Whatever truths we confront as we examine our beliefs, we emerge from our period of investigation having learned much. You may find today that the notions you have long held to be true are not as justifiable as you once believed them to be.
