I think it's more of a thing that I want to believe that there is more to life, that there is some smidgen of purpose, just the same as I want to believe in unicorns and mermaids but deep down I know that I shouldn't. Maybe we really do die and that's it, but I find it so hard to fathom my mind shutting down and ceasing to exist altogether. There's just so much activity there, it'd be a lot to shut down.<br /><br />One really shitty thing I see about "religionists" is that they don't truly value life. Why bother, when there's a whole new world ahead? It's like, "WELP, I just made a doozy! Oh, well let me go PRAY about it, I get infinity redos as long as I ask for forgiveness."<br /><br />The whole "Heaven" idea I find pretty ridiculous. The most precious thing about life is that you only get one. That's it. This is Heaven, for me. Yeah, bad stuff happens, but there is so much damned wonderfulness, too. I don't want to be somewhere with golden gates, choirs, wings and all that hoobla. How can you appreciate something when everything is always sunshine and rainbows and daisies? It'd get pretty damn boring, I would think. And "Hell"? Eternal inferno place of doom because I stole some caramels out of the bin at the supermarket one time, I lied to my ex boyfriend about the car settlement because he's a douche and I feel he doesn't deserve any of it, because I thought the notion of God Almighty is really concerned with my every minuscule action is just a bit narcissistic and unrealistic? Pssh.<br /><br />You are a damned butterfly. You're not a sheeple-people, you're worlds better than just about anyone I know. I sung this to you drunk on the dance floor of the warehouse, but just in case you forgot; there's not a thing that I would change because you're amazing just the way you are.<br /><br />And... There you have it. I went a little type happy. xzibit would say; "Yo Dawg, I heard you like blogs, so I wrote you a blog for your blog so you can blog while you blog!"Heatherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16977323065884071088noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3212125363453123469.post-65083667701715047272011-04-21T13:13:03.197-07:002011-04-21T13:13:03.197-07:00This comment has been removed by the author.Heatherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16977323065884071088noreply@blogger.com
