In my younger years… I used to sign on Slum books which goes around from one chair to the other and if you are so friendly then it jumps from one classroom to the next. Mostly, what is being asked there are you favorite this and favorite that.
I remember, I asked myself once… What is it “really” that i consider my favorite color? food? Subject? so on and so forth… and if it happens that I was still undecided then i would look at other people’s answer and copy which could describe what is close to my possible response… But not all of it are exactly what i meant or what I like.
I used to write there that my favorite color is blue but when I look at my closet (back then) most of my clothes are yellow/brown… so what is the truth? My actual possessions tell me that blue is not really my favorite color. Looks like I’m more fascinated and attracted to brown! hmmmm…
My favorite movie? I used to say horror film but in reality I’m a sucker for “Heavy” drama…
There was a question like “Who’s your crush?”… gee… it would take me years to write his name. Because my real “crush” is actually not written on paper… but in my “heart” (naks, i could fall from my seat
), which I was so afraid to tell or write back then…
Because he might read it (whispers), and it would spoil my plans (wink wink).
SO… if we are unsure of things that we want, there’s a great possibility that we would fail to stand for it. WE might lose it along the way and would be replaced of things that we copy from other people.
Pretensions and lies… most of the time contaminates our discretion. It spoils the truth until it is drifted away from our own consciousness. Sad to say there are lies that due to constant usage become real to the person who’s using it.
What is my point?! As I said there are certain things that we need to settle at an early stage of our lives, which is “What is you Faith?”. “Who is you God?”. “What do you believe in?”… “What drives you?”
This is a vital or integral part of ones being. Because it dictates how you would conduct yourself.
Example… If you are a vegetarian then you would avoid anything that does not belong to a plant family. Let us say…, in a party, because your a vegetarian…your mind will tell you not to eat pork, beef or fish. So your choices is being trimmed down by your “faith”. If you belong to ”muslim or jew faith” then you will avoid pork and blood.
It will go on and on and it will surely affect your life whether you like it or not. If you prefer not to choose which faith to believe in, then it makes you an ”antagonist” or an “atheist” or what have you… by not choosing which is which, will still have a bearing when it comes to decision making.
So… settle what is it that you want to believe in! It is better to choose and not be drifted away by uncertainties. But of course, you have to have some criteria for choosing…
IF you are going to ask me… choose the truth.
As for me… I CHOSE JESUS, I’M PROUD TO BE A CHRISTIAN… not because of anything but because, I experienced God’s divine interventions in my Life.
With me… I can say, that He is alive, my ever present help in times of need. My lover… My God.
But don’t take my words for it… desire to experience it!
your lover…that’s disturbing that your imaginary friend is your lover. lucky for you they have pills for that.
hi anonymous. thanks for dropping by and taking time to leave a comment. Anyway, you are entitled to you own opinion. I just hope that you find someone who will truly, truly love you, despite of your weakness, flaws and inequities… whether imaginary or not. And when that happens I hope that you will not be maligned and tagged as coocoo (if that’s what the pills for).
I pray that you meet my imaginary friend… and surely you will fall in love with him just like me.
