I am still an atheist, thank God.

Hi guys, before thinking to write a post like this, I never thought it this way. First I got this heading finalized and then started to think on it, which took a little more time than usual.
So …
Am I an atheist??? hmmm … Am I a theist? hmmm … can’t settle on a particular idea. Anyway that doesn’t matter, life doesn’t stop. I tend to think of such things often. I pray to God everyday, I also wear some religious threads and malas but why exactly am I doing this? I think it’s just a hope that we create for ourselves so as everything has to be going good. But does anyone really make that good happen to me. I guess yes there
is always one person responsible for my well being or destruction. And that would be ME. I strongly believe that whatever we do in the present carries to the past and the past carries to our future, that’s a sensible cycle. I hope you got my point there. So, why do I follow the rituals? "Well we are social animals and we need to follow certain rules set by the society." Sorry, but I don’t believe in this crap, I don’t stop doing anything because my neighbor doesn’t like it. Then why do I do it? Hmmm …
