Must everything become a stereotype?
Must everything become a trend?
Obama has become a trend. He is no longer a human being, but a fad.
"Going Green" has become fashionable and cool. But nobody really cares about the environment.
Eating organically has become the new thing to do, as it's thought of as sort of going back to an all-natural state, untouched by humans. Too bad a lot of organic food is uber expensive, and only purchased by middle to upper class white Americans.
I am not at all a religious person, but i always looked at Christians with a sort of hope. However, my thoughts are definitely changing. All the churches around me change with the times. Whatever is trendy, whatever is cool right now, becomes their way in to sell their God to people. To me, if God is real, he doesn't change. And so his church on earth should not change either. A lot of my Christian friends try to get me to go to their youth groups. I've gone a few times. All i remember is lots of free food, loud music with smoke and flashing lights, pool tables, thousands of teens, and people winning iPods. Cool. What's the newest trend going to be?
Obama won the election! I'm happy about having our first black president elected, although i don't think skin color is important.
i just want to throw up. yay for bulimia.

Hey, hang in there, okay? You sound pretty discouraged, and I understand what you mean.
I know several people with eating disorders and I know that bulimia destroys you. You should seriously get help.
I don't think the problem with Christians is that we screw up, I think it's that we're not honest about it. We're all human; we're going mess up, hurt others, hurt ourselves, hurt God--big time. But it's when we can begin to be honest about it with God and others that He can begin to heal us and that the world will begin to see that there is hope.
Bulimia is by far not the worst thing in the world. Don't beat yourself up over it--that's when you'll be tempted to do it even more. Everyone has hangups; we need to work through them with God's and a good friend's help. You're not hopeless. You're honesty is refreshing and gives great hope that you'll come out of this.
I read your blog, and even though I don't know you, I know you want to live. I know you want a full life. You find beauty in so many things. Find it in yourself. Find it in God. Find it in the God-Man Jesus Christ who died to heal us of our disease of self-hatred and God-hatred. I'm only beginning to learn and live in that reality myself. It's a life-long process. Don't give up on it.
Peace be with you, friend.
