Silver Cross.

Oct 02, 2006 05:45

I've always liked to stand and look at Churches. I love the way they look, so old and rustic in most cases. Basically I think they look beautiful.

I also feel rather peaceful when i'm looking at them; this may have something to do with the fact that it always seems to be quiet around the area. Maybe not everywhere but i've not visited every church on the planet!

I don't like to go inside though, ever. When I have it was for a wedding service or a funeral. Also I went in church when I was young on occasion with my Nana and my Nancy seeing as they tend to go on a Sunday. No longer though and there's no valid reason for this. I guess I could use my whole 'forced religion' theory but that's a line of crap. Sure someone may ask me how i'm doing when I go inside, they won't start preaching to me though, right? I feel as if it would be wrong for me to step inside though. A Church is a holy place, for people who believe, for people who're searching for belief. Basically people seeking something, people with religious beliefs. Mine are scattered, I don't follow any God. I still don't feel like i'm a bad person though. I do feel like on some level I shouldn't be stepping into a Church though, almost as if i'm not deserving.

Certain people have claimed that I must have some form of belief. Course I do, I have opinions on almost everything....come on, you HAVE spoken to me, right? Their reasoning is quite silly though, everyone goes straight for the small silver cross that never leaves my body.

Well, here's a little secret. It makes me feel comfortable, I think it looks nice and my Nana gave it to me when I was an ickle boy. That's why it never leaves me. Not because I feel it brings me closer to God.

Oh, and as I mentioned in the past; i've nothing against religion or people with beliefs. It's a wonderful thing to believe in something, just don't expect me to follow you like a sheep, and don't try and force it down my throat.

I also wondered if this, these thoughts of Church were down to my present situation. Maybe God will save me and help me with these feelings, my depression and so on. For some that may work, i'm adamant of that fact. For me, no, God's not my answer.

I'll find my answer, eventually.
