First and foremost I would like to say that this blog is not only controversial it will probably downright offend some of you. With that being said I still feel the need to address certain topics, so today is going to be a collaboration of things that I have my own opinion of that may not be the same opinion as some of you.
I have to say that we as humans supposed to love every person in the world and even I have a hard time doing so sometimes. It's not for prejudices so much as pure aggravation. The old saying comes to mind that God must love stupid people because he sure made a lot of them. When people act stupid it gets on my nerves, then I have to take a breath and remind myself that ignorance is not stupidity and that it's not really their fault. That is what all of us should do.
I am an American woman that loves her country proudly. I am a Christian that believes if you want to be Buddhist, Jewish, Hindu, or Pagan, that is your right and you should be allowed to practice whatever religion you believe in. I also believe if you are gay, you are born that way and you should have the same rights as straight people including same sex marriage. I am pro choice because I believe that sometimes having a baby is not the best option and women should have the right to choose what's best for them. I have never been racist a day in my life even though I was raised deep in the heart of Dixie and I believe women should be able to birth when and where they want to. I think marijuana should be legalized even though anyone that knows me will tell you I don't smoke. I just know people that could benefit from it.
I am proud to be the way I am and some people worry too much about what others think about when I state my beliefs. I am not pushing them on anyone, just stating them. If we all would quit being so judgmental then there would be no reason to worry about what someone else thinks. We should love each other just the way we are and stop trying to push one another into being something we weren't born to be.
I saw a button the other day directed toward protesters of gays and pro choice individuals. It read,"If the fetus you are trying to protect turned out gay, would you still protect it?" It's a brain thinker anyway. I personally have gay cousins out the wazoo, more gay friends than carter has liver pills, and my step sister is a lesbian. I love them all just the same.
Love is the answer not hate. Its hard sometimes I know, but it is truly miraculous thing when a person can forget their differences and open their hearts to everyone around them. Their entire lives change. Try it if you don't believe me. I challenge you to do so.
