so i couldnt sleep last night again, of course and i had finished my reading for school and i wasnt interested in the olympics last night so i turned off the tv and picked up my book that i was reading long long ago it seems. i picked right back up though and remembered all that had happend. i am reading angels and demons by dan brown. the davinci code prequil. there was this amazing amazing amazing section where they talk about god. it pretty much comes down to her telling him some crazy deep stuff about god isnt what all the religions make him/her to be, but what we believe in. i am wording it very badly and i would try to pick out a quote, but its like 2 pages of amazing dialog, but here goes.
mr langdon, i did not ask you if you believed in what man says about god. i asked you if you believed
in god. there is a difference. holy scripture is stories...legends and history of man's quest to
understand his own need for meaning. i am not asking you to pass judgement on literature. i am asking
you if you believe in god. when you lie out under the stars, do you sense the divine? do you feel in
your gut that you are staring up at the work of god's hand?
i just read this section and really thought about it. it was really good.
i was dreading going to class today for some reason, but i dragged myself anyways, and once i was there i was very happy about it. i like the main teacher, i love tuesday classes, but something about thursdays really urk me. hate hate hate.
so granny has called me 3 times today and i have yet to answer. i dont know why i am avoiding my family, but i am. i just never feel like talking to them. i have really felt like talking to only a few ppl lately really. i am in a slump and i dont know what its going to take for me to get out of it.
