"Knock on wood" The interesting thing about "tapping or knocking on wood for the New Year makes me think of the story telling folklores i've read read in the past. "legend says if you knock or tap on a tree in the forest, you invite and allow the spirits of the forest trees to protect you from negative, unwanted influences, and help with guidance."which then became the saying "knock on wood" for luck, protection or even positive guidance. So its entirely fitting to knock on wood 🪵 for the New Year too. This is a pic of one of my favorite massive pine trees 🌲 I added some glitter detail. Note: not every folklore for the holiday needs to cost a fortune to try. This one is free and it doesn't need to be a tree but a tree works too. #newyear #folklore #superstition #spirituality #fypageシ #NatureLover

Belief means nothing if it does not make you kinder. Faith loses its meaning the moment it becomes a tool for judgment, control, or cruelty. A kind atheist who acts with compassion is closer to humanity than a believer who harms in the name of God. Because goodness is not proven by prayers, rituals, or labels — it is proven by how you treat another human being. True spirituality is not found in loud devotion, but in quiet empathy. Not in how often you worship, but in how deeply you understand suffering. Not in scripture memorized, but in hearts softened. Religion was meant to awaken conscience, not replace it. When belief excuses cruelty, it has lost its soul. When faith creates fear instead of love, it has missed its purpose. The world does not need more people defending God. It needs more people reflecting compassion. Because in the end, humanity will always matter more than ideology, and love will always be the highest form of belief... 🌿 . . . . #buddha #wisdom #spirituality #awakening #peace #religion #God #kindness #empathy #love
