All of us have been tit-sucking Jehovahs Witnesses at one point in our lives, and we have been deceptively forced to give up our very own individuality to become one group united under, supposedly, God's only Earthly organization. Just maybe, maybe throughout your much hated dull life, as a brainless Witness, you weren't allowed to experience the necessities of life, such as Satan's blaring rock and roll that you oh so always wanted to listen to, dressing up in those flaming hot name brand clothes lines, being part of a sports team, knowing what true bonding friendship and competition really meant, or chosing those friends you know would never turn you in for having that nightly drink at the club. Now that we know the real truth, and the damage has been done, what have you done to repair it? What have you done to create the individual-self in you?
For me, I knew what I wanted in my pointless life, and boy did my life suck. I hated it, and I wanted something to live for. I needed that catalyst. It took one person to push me, to set me free. Truthfully, I admired that person because we could relate to each other so close. Both of us live in a world of opression, and both of us hated religion. We shared ideas, political and religious. She molded me into who I am today, and I try to live by it, but staying ever open minded to new ideals. To describe myself, it would go something like this: my life revolves around music and making things right in a world full of wrong. I love to party my ass off and live life to the fullest. I love meeting different people, learning about different cultures, and I want to travel the world someday. There is only one thing that I believe in and live for, and thats love.
Who are you now?

I'm th fat kid who sticks up for the little guy, and speaks his mind.
My friends really love me and my enemies really hate me.
I just do things for me right now, and once I get my shit together, I'll help other people follow suit.

i guess you haven't had love kick you in your balls yet. thats going to be one of the harder ones to deal with especially when you have already lost most of what you were raised with. dont put everything into a relationship thinking that they are giving thee same back and make sure you find something else to help keep you living because love isn't around all the time.

Tsunami,
Here is a definition of "Love" made in the song by the Eurythmics entitled "Love is a Stranger." See what you think. Have you heard it?
Love is a stranger
In an open car
To tempt you in
And drive you far away
And I want you
And I want you
And I want you so
It's an obsession
Love is a danger
Of a different kind
To take you away
And leave you far behind
And love love love
Is a dangerous drug
You have to receive it
And you still can't
Get enough of the stuff
It's savage and it's cruel
And it shines like destruction
Comes in like the flood
And it seems like religion
It's noble and it's brutal
It distorts and deranges
And it wrenches you up
And you're left like a zombie
And I want you
And I want you
And I want you so
It's an obsession
It's guilt edged
Glamorous and sleek by design
You know it's jealous by nature
False and unkind
It's hard and restrained
And it's totally cool
It touches and it teases
As you stumble in the debris
And I want you
And I want you
And I want you so
It's an obsession_______________________
I just thought of this when you mentioned the importance of love in your world view. There are so many takes on "Love" its hard to see it in the terms you describe.
I've always thought this song was a nice overview of the subject.

Who am I?
I'm simply Jason, undefined.
Why should I define myself with a label? Christian, Atheist, Agnostic, Straight, Gay, White Collar, Blue Collar, Happy, Sad, Indifferent...it's all bullshit. I am what I feel at any given moment.
Labels are confining. We look to define who we are and limit ourselves based on the definition. We look to 'fit in', to 'settle', to 'belong'. And for what? Why do people choose to limit themselves? It makes no logical sense.

the guy formally known as Jason. everyone fits in some category somewhere even if the "no category" category. the fact that people are on here is a category in itself isn't it?
