Late Night Ramblings

Ah a quick note of today. Wasnt too bad and got a little done in both the book and the screenplay though need to take more time and finish both. Otherwise just too restless these days. Need to figure it out

Faith

Been thinking lately a lot about Religion and how it affects people here at Utah State. Sadly its an issue that I have had to deal with head on since I left my religion many year ago, in its own way, a constant reminder of what I had to give up to be go the path that I did take. Either with lying with every breath I would take at church, saying things I truly didnt feel or reject it. These are my thoughts after a few years on the subject.

Faith

I do not believe in the stories of old but I believe in the power of humanity

I do not pray to a deity I pray to myself that I can make a change in the world I see

I do not have faith that there is a divine plan but I have faith that I can make my life meaningful

I do not let religion define me but religiously try to do more good than wrong

Well I had more but its not wanting to come out tonight. Its tough, knowing that I am a good person with worthy goals, but being shunned by the community because of my different beliefs. I have been wild and crazy the past few years and I dont want to go back to that. Those times were fun, they were good but it was a dark time. But all I can do is go on and be better. Thats my goal. As long as I keep that in mind, the goals can be reached, the wars won and reach that summit of goals that I am setting for myself. With that I wish you all adeiu.
