Worship
We hold onto the things we can’t change. Not because of their peculiarities of being unmalleable but because of its stance. It’s unwavering like a symbol. That is our idea of it. Ideas have the permissibility of wandering but instead of representation we fear our ideals being questioned. The idea becomes sentient to a cause.
We hold onto dripping positions and sink our feet into sand. It hardly matters the oppositions. In this case the ocean pushes and tides rise and you are drowning. Will our idea fault, will my stance still idolize the symbol, or should I let go and surface? The farther we’ve sunk the more time to look for others to hold on to. We succeed in the encampment of our thought so we don’t break stride with our beliefs. We see lost regalia when we observe the shared idolization.
When thoughts intertwine, they become a system. They are the subsets of our identity. We personalize our beliefs to fit in with our thoughts. We can find this path through discussions with ourselves, with peers or through communication. The discussion is small and weaves through experience and conversational etiquette. We find ourselves through the words we portray.
Communication is fed to us. We feel the hunger so we eat. It’s easier to partake in an experience when it’s repetitive. When we know it. We decide we know it because it’s a long the same path we were on. We place checkpoints through landmarks. We go this direction because of this tree. The tree is our symbol to adhere to our decision.
It’s not necessarily about the aura of opinion but about the regal of ownership. To fit in, to feel above, to cling to a common hospitality.
Some pursue beliefs to be anointed. Some grasp for a belief because it is a way. Some believe the belief was always there. They are truly a part of the symbol. The sanctity of symbols trickle branching into denomination of ideas. The perception can be the clarity or the opacity to the cause. The effect is the widespread understanding.
The audience is its members. The symbol has fans. Fans praise the symbol and hierarchy forms through the interconnection of ideas and group thought. A believer then has to question their intention on their belief. Nature deposes from weave of identity and ideology. Active traits dictate how one reacts and adheres to the symbol and now the group.
The ideas are convoluted in the individual belief and their perception of the symbol and now the groups belief and their common perception of the symbol. All these avenues result to culture. It’s a growth, a system that builds upon its limbs to raise shape to a qualitative and quantitative resemblance to our identity. We follow a way determined by previous actions that ascertain a familiar result.
A relationship sparks through the journey. A framework lays bare to the claims of perception. The common thread weaves parallel to old ideas and new thought. Language and the necessity in group accumulation posits that the embankment keeps shaping vertical and horizontal.
Ideas rarely retroactively persuade. Symbols are a living entity in our thoughts. They subtly change to the currents and tides of our shaping culture.
Culture is to cultivate these ideas into subsets of influence. Symbols influence us and we are a conduit to shape culture. Culture continuously flows outwards towards meaning. Meanings are the concrete interpretation of ideas. But since it is a perception of group thought, meanings are never strictly static. This is where denominations pertaining to a symbol’s specificity ranks between groups. The systems become a hierarchy in their notion of idealized group thought.
