I'm Not Sure (If I Believe

But I do believe that if there is a God, he would be giving me time to make this decision on my own, without judgement. 


Perspective. That's something that one can never have enough of. 

Any bad thing that can happen to you is awful, it's horrible, it sucks, but it is not the end of the world (unless it is, that's not a good phrase to use). In any case, life goes on, with or without you and that is what we must remember. (Along with my original point that things could be worse. Even if it doesn't seem like it. If you're not dead, then you could be. If you have a roof over your head, then you might not. 

This is especially true in North America where no one has a perfect life, but many, if not most, people have some forms of freedom. 

In saying that one must remember that places that are not individualistic are not without "freedom." 



I Want (This To Mean Something This Time)

..Because without meaning, does the world exist?


Would you exist without meaning? Who are you? 

Quick. Write down 20 sentences starting with "I am..." 
It can be anything. Anything you are. As superficial or as deep as you want. 
Who are you?






---

1. I am Vrindy
2. I am 1/2 East Indian
3. I am awesome
4. I am whitewashed
5. I am a secretary
6. I am creative
7. I am technologically-able
8. I am a secretary
9. I am able-bodied
10. I am a reader
11. I am a computer-holic
12. I am not an alcoholic
13. I am a writer
14. I am a student
15. I am a brunette
16. I am positive
17. I am thirsty
18. I am a thinker
19. I am unique
20. I am me. 


No matter how simple or difficult that was, there were infinite options, likely the amount of options is what would have made it difficult to decide. Only 20 statements to describe you. Impossible. How many should it take? 100? 500? 1000? Would that make you who you are? Or are you already who you are? How much of who you are is depicted by how others perceive you compared to how you perceive yourself? I'm asking because if there are answers, I don't have them. 

The Beginning (Does This Mean It's the End?)
