Why ?

I don't ask that simple question enough in my life. One simple word that when used properly and reflected upon adequately reveals more about our human condition that most of us care to admit.

Why do I eat what I eat?
Why do I act the way I act?
Why do I say the things I say?
Why do I beleive what I beleive?

More often than not the answer I find to questions of "Why do I..." reveals a life of based upon habit, tradition and emotion rather than a life of deliberate purposful action and thought.
