Your adult self knows that, but your child self took it to heart. <BR/><BR/>Don't be depressed. Please don't. It's Christmas...go shopping, buy nice cards, write cute messages, think of love, spread the love....light a little candle in this darkness.<BR/><BR/>I'm out to go shopping now. Light my own candle too.<BR/><BR/>God bless.Jennhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14359604151544863025noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19255072.post-1133311451409182022005-11-29T19:44:00.000-05:002005-11-29T19:44:00.000-05:00Jenn - I agree.

I have found most religions are the same, they just may use different words or images. <BR/><BR/>It's like when I was studying for First Communion. How could it matter if my hands were in the classic prayer position or if my fingers were interlaced? I was praying my little heart out. Did God care what I was doing with my hands?Nessahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07779269921583131094noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19255072.post-1133307514839008322005-11-29T18:38:00.000-05:002005-11-29T18:38:00.000-05:00I am Catholic too.

All religions (I think anyway) are essentially peaceful. And then you get people with political agendas who declare wars in the name of said religion and whoa, we're off again.<BR/><BR/>It's ironic: The Christians say, love your neighbour as yourself. The Muslims say with peace in my heart I submit to the will of Allah. The Hindus and Buddhists have the practice of ahimsa - harm no living thing (not even a bug).<BR/><BR/>So religion, basically, is a good thing. I guess we project our own negativity on it and make it mean anything we want it to mean.Jennhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14359604151544863025noreply@blogger.com
