Genuine questions for believers: what makes you believe in God ? Is it just that you choose to believe or do you actually believe he exists ?

I believe he actually exists because I feel his presence in every creation around me. When I see waterfalls, trees, rivers, the complexity of the human mind, different species on this earth, the universe and its vastness so on and so forth, I can't help but exclaim to myself how beautiful His creation is! Science only explains the what but not the why. However, I am not just religious but also spiritual. I don't care what name you give him. It can be God, Universe, higher intelligence, higher being, can be anything. But for sure there's a power greater than us.
(P.S. I am a Hindu and we have both gods and goddesses!).

I feel like we all need to believe in something to justify things outside of our control. Let that be god, destiny, universe, horoscope, magic, physics, politician etc

Went through a really hard time and someone recommended that I turn to God. I was desperate so I did. It's been an amazing journey since then. Hasn't been easy, but it's been worth it. Seek and you will find.

There are many “gods” but only one true God. The Lord Jesus!

I think because some experiences in life cannot be explained solely by science and empirical thought... some things are so wildly inexplicable that maybe there is more out there.

Can anyone give me their honest opinion on working at Eli Lilly, the Indy site? I have a few coworkers that have worked there in the past but no one recently.

Salaries would be comparable (Lilly would most likely be a little more with bonuses), but if the culture sucks, I’d hate to burn a bridge with Envigo.

I recently lateraled into Big Law. Most of my colleagues are homegrown. My shift did involve a big change in practice area, and there's work that I haven't done before that I now have to do.

But, sometimes I feel stupid here, even for work which I have done previously. It's like I'm unable to understand instructions the first time around. And I have seen my colleagues getting annoyed by that. It's like I've become dumb. In my defence, I could say they're giving half assed instructions.

I miss music. Like actual bands with instruments and vocal ability. Feels like the music industry is so hollowed out that multi-member instrumental bands like Fleetwood Mac, The Beatles, and even Metallica are no longer able to take root.

There are a few talented individual singers (Adele) a lot of awful mumble rappers, but no actual bands that will stand the test of time. Before I get called a Boomer, the problems with the music industry for new artists are well documented.

I have no issues dating/sleeping with my neighbors, co-workers (sometimes, happened twice), and hired help (personal trainers, massage therapists, mechanics).
