Pondering...


I went to Church this morning. Mainly to see some friends whose band was doing all the music. But really, it had been a long time. In the words of my Dad, I was "overdue for a service." LOL. I'm still not really into denominations or rituals. I'm actually enjoying reading in Romans at the moment about salvation by faith, and not by 'the law.' It's a big concept and all very confusing. A lot of it actually seems to contradict itself, but there are some really good verses in there. To get back to the point, I went to Church. Something about it usually makes me feel very uncomfortable, but not today. It was kind of peaceful. Also good to go in a way to say 'thankyou' to God, because among all the crap my loved ones and I have been through, we also have a lot of blessings! And it's nice to be reminded that God is still there and doesn't just give up on us just because we don't always go the right way. The weirdest thing right now is how many of my blog entries unintentionally end up being about God. How much it affected my life when my faith was shaken. I never realised how much it was a part of who I am, until all this. It scares me a little bit, but I think it was all meant to be this way.
The other thing I was pondering as I walked home was stereotypes. I was thinking about how uncomfortable long skirts are LOL. I like them, but they make it harder to move! I'm a girly girl in that I love everything pink, nailpolish, long hair, romantic movies etc. But I've never had any interest in fashion trends really, I'd rather just wear whatever I like than try to keep up. I'd rather wear jeans or sweatpants and play with my bunnies! But then I'm not the tomboy type either. I can't climb trees. I hate any sport that involves a ball. And I do NOT like bugs. Oh well. I shall not be defined :) This concludes todays rambling.
