Her

Greatest feeling I've ever had is when I'm with her and I hope my control issues don't screw it up.

Girls are crazy.

Not so Sure

Sometimes it seems worth it to throw it all away but when that feeling fades is it not still valid?

Lack thereof

I have tried a couple religions and neither have sparked my interest. People always speak of a feeling as if God is telling them it is the right choice. Sometimes I think people just want to fit in so badly that eventually their mind just creates a "divine" experience. I have tried the baptist church and it was full of nice people but at the end of the day it's not much different than the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints or the Catholic church. They all have at least one thing in common and that's a belief in God. Why do I need to pick a specific religion to go to heaven. Is God persecuting everyone who isn't a Lutheran or a Presbyterian? I find that awfully hard to believe that the figure I am suppose to derive my morals from is going to damn me to hell because I didn't join the right cliche. In short I do not ascribe to a specific religion because I find it unnecessary. Why do I need to be apart of YOUR religion in order to be a good person.

I believe in higher power something ancient and knowledgeable and if his name is "God" so be it. There are of course the atheist who are fine to but is there no possibility that perhaps the theory of evolution and God can go hand in hand. Is there no reason that science and the divine can coexist. People choose to separate them because one is visible and the other is not. I believe there is a link in all things that dwells within us and if it's name is "God" so be it. People are all ready to say that God is a high powerful being and then at the same time choose to coddle him like a child and spare is feelings by choosing the "right" religion. God is great but a belief in him doesn't make you a good person. I choose to live my life the way I want to. I think it is hard to explain a belief in God but for me it is a feeling and nothing more. It's nice to know that there is always someone on the phone even though he might have put the phone down and is now watching TV, and not knowing is the best part. I believe in God not because I was raised to or that it was forced down my throat, I simply believe because I find it comforting.

Religion

Many men have claimed that they are part of the "true religion" yet each man is apart of a different one. A religion is only as strong as it's weakest member. How can a religion be true if it cannot bring about harmony between humanity and the divine. To be of God the religion should be perfect and if it is not how can it seek to worship him. Men are not perfect , and so there cannot be a "true religion" there can only be true believers. For one group to say it is better than the next is simply arrogant as they both have one factor in common. They all share weak willed members, and for anyone of them to say they do not is foolish. Religion thrives on the hopeless and the needy. Men need acknowledgement for good deeds and what better way to be rewarded for good deeds than eternal life in heaven. At the end of the day it's all about how many followers you have and it is nothing more than an outdated, medieval twitter!

Not all religions however consist of solely selfish, needy, arrogant members. I think all religions start with pure and honest good intentions. Along the way though I feel as if religions just end up dividing people. No longer can we be friends for alas - we are not both Roman Catholic! I do not seek to destroy the bible or what it stands for. I believe the ties on the other hand between religious movements and God have long since died. I have grown weary of the struggles of man to prove that his beliefs are correct.

Religious groups are by no means all horrible places. Some are excellent sources of knowledge and friendship. I do believe however that no one religion is right nor that one can claim superiority over the other. Great men have sprung out of religions and have been morally pure but it is not their religion that should be the focus but their actions. Religious beliefs should not take a mans actions as there own. One may be the hand of God but at some point people just become tools for a religions gain.

Belief is for the taking. Great men are great men and what they believe is irrelevant.

Pie

I got lost in my thoughts and never came back. Sometimes all life needs is a pause. It's not all about the money or the finer things in life. Life is about the experiences we share and create with friends and family. Often times life is shitty and it feels like the endless rut is going to lead to death. It always ends and the light is dimmer when covered shit but as one picks themselves up and brushes it off they realize the light is far more blinding. The light is as bright as we make it. It takes courage and will to except the light and it's hard I can attest to that. Sometimes the darkest of times take a toll but it is in those bright times where happiness is grown and begins to create a bubble for which no shit may cling to my suit. Live every day better than the last and soon discover that there is no limit to the happiness one can achieve. No one will probably ever see this and that's okay.

The End
