Someone Strange.

Somehow these people never seem to phase me. I can never escape the questions and negativity. No one seems to think I can do this. It's hard enough as it is going at this alone, let alone having descussions of the sort (the usual), (you can't change)..blah blah. Well, ya know what, maby I can't.. but isn't it atleast worth the try? Honestly, what could I possibly have to loose? I handful of "your weird now"'s.."you can't do it"'s.."your a totaly different person". It's conversations like these, that make me second guess what am I trying to prove? But then when im finished feeling sorrie for myself, I realize it's not what im trying to prove, but WHO im trying to prove it to. Anywho, here the conversation im refering to. I just had it with one of my friends, I took the liberty to block out his name and change it to "..." because it's not who's saying it thats important, it's what's being said.

This is exactly what I mean in my post below about "being a prisoner to my own past". I can't escape it. Even If i can forget it, it's like noone else can. Or noone else wants to. Because of my past im goin to suffer in the present and future, because people think im just a big joke or something trying to persue christ. Well, i've made to many mistakes like this before, putting my faith aside because of what everyone is always telling me to do. I put it off almost 3 years and im not about to do it again. So think what you wish, but I have every intention to make it.

You probably know who it is, and i just want you to know i really respect what your doing. it takes courage to step away from the secular life to christianity, and i think your really strong for being able to do that... who ever said people can't change doesn't know what hes talking about... obviously he's never heard of people converting and giving their whole lives to christ, but hey, some of us aren't fortunate enough to have that honor in our lives. i also just want you to know your not alone in your struggles, that i face the exact same things you do daily, and if you ever need anyting, anyone to talk to about it, im always here, because im in the same boat as you. im heading out though. god bless and keep up the good work...

i think who ever your talking to has a serious issue, way to be supportive.. people can change, how could anyone live without making mistakes and learning from them? everything happens for a reason and all decisions lead to another, i think its really good your taking a stand and doing what you feel is right, i myself have decided to stop too, the drinking anyway, its not as much fun as everyone thinks it is and its stupid.. thats have the reason people make so many mistakes, myself times about 100.. i personally think ive changed. i love my boyfriend more then anything and hate what ive done before.. but it doesnt go away.. you just cant olet it affect your new decisions and actions.. i really respect you for that
