Why is LOVE so hard? Why dont the people i like like me, and why dont i like the people who like me? Its bizarre. Its as if there is a evil mastermind throwing people into my life who I will like but they have been zombied to never think of me romantically. Its like an buffet of all sorts, but when you bite into your food you find that its plastic.

I read a quote yesterday. it said, " great love and great achievement involve great risk." I dont know who wrote it, but its so true.

I risked my friendship with a girl the other day. We have been friends for so long. I have always thought she was wonderful. I finally told her, I had to, I could not have lived my life knowing that I did not tell here, always wondering "what if." I dont think she will accept my movement, but we are friends nonetheless. I guess thats all i can really ask for, right? I mean, whats the worst that can happen? She can say no, and we never talk again because I freaked her out. Oh, my. I hope not. I think we will still be good friends, however I dont know if i could ever stop liking her, thats how wonderful she is. Sometimes i feel like this is the story of my love stories. Guy and girl are friends, guy is so attracted to girl, girl only sees him as friend. Guy makes moves to show his interest, and girl doesnt understand the moves in that fashion. Guy finally tells her, she is shocked and doesnt know what to say. Girl says that she only likes him as a friend. Huuuu... deep breaths and sighs. Its not much to ask is it? Everyone wants to be loved. Unfortunately we all have preconceived notions and ideas, even pictures, of what our Prince Charming or Barbie will look like. We get this in our head and we look for it only to simply miss the fact that the persons who are REAL are all around you. Its true you cant just fall in love with any one.

I do wish that it might work out for me with this girl, but I dont think it will. Maybe i dont give myself enough credit, maybe im just a pessimist. I know I'm scared of rejection so maybe im just mentally preparing myself for it.

I just want to love someone. I just want to make that persons life happy. I just want to be the person that the other can go to and know for sure that he will be there to help and comfort. I want to give, I want to love and be loved. I want to feel like a real human.

Its hard living alone. Its not that I actually live alone, I have roomates, but men cannot provide the atmosphere necessary to fulfill another mans needs. I have really close male friends, but I do not want to sleep in the same bed with them. Oh, dear. I know this is for a season. But im scared of being alone. Im scared of living without a someone needing me. I need to be needed.

A response to my beloved mother: part 2

READ THIS POST FIRST MY MOTHER : "I'm a registered Conservative, but my vote counted since they endorsed McCain, so I guess it all depends on who the Libertarian's endorse, and even if it were someone difference, at least you would have had a part in voting for the "most" righteous candidate, and McCain was the one even though he's still not the Christian ideal! Remember, Bill Clinton was a "pro-choice" candidate as well as one who furthered the homosexual agenda, so it wasn't surprising to me that 9/11 happened after his term was up and it's not surprising that the economy is faltering so badly now, and it won't surprise me if Obama continues the downward spiral, even if it is into socialistic policies since that's how Europe has gone since they left off looking to God. It doesn't matter what the rest of the world is doing since the majority have been anti-God for so long and their nations have paid for that for centuries (Dark...

I don't have all the answers, but I do have two cents.

My friend and fellow recovering ex-fundamentalist , I greet you joyously knowing the freedom you have found in leaving fundamentalism, however I am saddened by your departure as a whole from our Lord. I indeed understand the hardship which you have faced is cause for questioning God’s existence, faithfulness, and love to his creation. I would like to respond to you because I feel like I understand your socio-religious background. Let me first tell you my goal is not to re-convert you, but rather to give you a second thought from one who grew up in similar roots, whose posture of faith remains bent toward the gospel. I also grew up in ultra-conservative fundamentalism. If names like Peter Ruckman, Jack Hyles, Arlin Horton, etc, mean anything to you than you will understand. I graduated from PCC. OMG. I cannot believe it, but it’s true. What a crazy place. Fear, guilt, shame, legalism were the name of the game! As long as you “caught the spirit” all of life would be good and God would b...

The Intolerance of Presbyterian Creeds

The bind between American political allegiance and Protestant evangelical conservatism is a key which unlocks the door of much early American civil history especially during the antebellum era through the early 20th century. To be conservative and American meant that you must regard a Protestant form of Christianity, namely the revivalistic, moral gospel which declared a morally conservative view of the socio-political system as king. In fact, not to be Protestant and politically conservative was in line with defaming the stars and stripes. Hart describes a situation in the early 20th century where the state of Utah elected and appointed a Mormon Apostle, Reed Smoot, to the U.S. Senate. Smoot underwent serious investigation from a Senate appointed committee to deliberate upon the ability of a Mormon to function in the place of a Senator given his religious views. The conservative Protestant ethos of the age was skeptical of any other religious conviction in its ability to be “American”...
