big questions.
i've got the big questions brewing up inside of me and i haven't found any answers. you know the ones, about the universe and
everything around us, and is this all there is, and i'm confusing
myself out by trying to comprehend the really big stuff. this
happens to me every now and then, i get all deep and philosophical
and it freaks out the people around me because i generally
don't ask the big questions.
i used to be quite religious but it upset me a lot. which sounds weird but it's true. i had all of this guilt, like all of the time. and i was 15, and getting bullied as it was and i was like 'no, i'm not going to let ME make myself even sadder.' so i let go of religion and i felt better because i could be me, whatever that entailed and it was all okay. and to be honest, it still is all okay. i like me. i'm a swell chap. i'm just a curious swell chap.
i wouldn't go as far as saying that i feel like something is missing because i find it kind of hard to think of this mystical presence that is going to save me and whatever else. i'm just curious and i like to be around religious people because they're (usually) happy and sure of themselves. there's really no point to this post. i'm just thinking aloud. does anyone else ever experience this? just weird moments of questioning and wondering and general interest in the big things?
