| I have seen the light!
It's warm and hugs my skin.
I have seen the light!
Wait! No.... I can feel the light.
Oh, there have been days when I would wish
Hope
Yearn
For this day to come true.
I can feel the light!
Yah, I said it was for theology
And philosophy
but no!
It was jealousy.
There were days
When I carried a 1000 pounds on my bare shoulders
Crush at the weight
And tell anyone who asked
Don't worry, I've got it covered.
Too many times I've cried
at church
at youth group
with tears streaming down
but why?
Looking around me at so many who believed
Who had hope and dreams
Who had someone to guide them
That was them, and there was me.
I was independent.
I was alone.
I didn't believe in rules.
I didn't have faith.
I was alone.
You see, God isn't about the technicalities.
Because faith and love isn't technical.
It's that gut feeling.
It's that trust.
We can argue about the logistics in the Book
We can argue about implausibility in the Book
We can argue about hypocracy in the Book.
But why argue, when we'll never really understand?
But why argue, when all you need to do is love everyone
Accept everyone.
Empathize with everyone.
Now, what's wrong with that?
Some might say I'm weak
Because I need someone to hold my hand.
I'd say I'm lucky
Because when times are hard
And it appears no one's around.
No one's feeling my pain.
Boy... eyes are for the blind.
If I had no eyes, I would trust the world.
Someone might take advantage of me
But what could I do?
Totally vulnerable and innocent
I am at your mercy!
Bitter, paranoid-- I won't let anyone help!
But I need help... I need someone to hold my hand.
There's nothing I can do.
I have to trust the world.
I have to trust you.
I have to trust that guy over there and there.
Or else I'd hide in the corner with a 20 foot wall around me and starve to death.
Or, I could let you
help me
walk across the street.
I could have no eyes, but who said I could not see.

| In the spirit of opposites
Because I know I'm easily influenced
When little knowledge is known
I become stubborn
Holding on to the knowledge I do know.

| He believes that words are shit. It's about action. He says:
Love is doing everything you can for someone to help them follow their dreams.
That's deep. I
have wondered why he let me major in film, but wrote it off as just
being lucky that he was okay with it. But now I know why. I told my
sister, before, that I didn't think dad really
loved me, and that he only did those things because, as his role as a
father, that's "what he's supposed to do." I told her that I didn't
think he would ever jump in front of a bullet for me, because he didn't
have enough feeling to do it, but I guess he would, wouldn't he?
He's done so much for me. Which means he really loves me.

| God loves everyone equally. He does not discriminate. We are all equal in our sin. It's those that let him into their hearts that go to heaven. Don't blame the bad things that happen on God, for what kind of life would it be if everything was perfect all the time? If God picked us up every time we fell, we would never learn how to get up.
