Faith/Love
Ok, normally i wouldnt even touch upon this issue because i didnt even think that it happened that often. But as my teenage summer has gone on longer, ive noticed this is a big controversial issue, and furthermore that there is really nothing that can be done about it. And on top of that, there is no wrong or right to whichever side you choose. What im trying to talk about is the conflict between religious beliefs and your growing love for another person. Now, being that im not a very religious person i dont have these type of conflicts. But i often run into girls that i start to like and then get blown away by the burning question of what religion i am. It kinda sucks if you think about it. It almost seems wrong that another person cannot date(whether its by their own beliefs or their parents) another person just because of their beleifs, its very unfortunate. Well anyway, i was awakened to this sadness first during the winter time when i was made known i wouldnt ever have a chance to go out with this certain girl because of our religions. It bothered me then but i just dismissed it as something ill never have to deal with again. Then recently it happened again, i felt myself wanting to get closer to a girl and then the question of religion came up and thats where the "anything more than hooking up" option got messed up. The whole catch to it is, who the fuck am i to say that its wrong? Because its neither right nor wrong. Its a beleif and its also something that should be held with upmost respect. And whether i like it or not, i have to respect the beliefs of these girls that choose to follow their religion so strongly. Its actually kind of cool though, it shows a strong sense of inner value and a respect for something that no one else can be placed on top of. Its caused problems for these people before but they havent given up their beleifs just for some stupid guy and i think thats pretty damn cool, even tho im the stupid guy theyre passing up lol. This isnt the last time this is going to happen im sure. My first fear before asking jamie out was that she was jewish and i was catholic and i had hoped so bad it wouldnt cause problems. Luckily she wasnt reliogious(at all lol), and everything worked out with that. It all depends what kind of girl she is. If shes very religious chances are you do not have a chance and ive learned this from experience. But if theyre not into their religion that much it kinda makes things alot more easier. Either way you cant forget that there are a million girls out there for you to choose from. Its just a fact of life that people choose to uphold their belifs very strongly and its just something that i and we have to understand even though it sucks. Well anyway ive been wanting to write a new entry anyway and this came up so im glad i got to say a little on this. With the whole faith/love thing, no matter what just respect what people belive and thats all i have to say, later.
