Dear future me,
Don’t forget how to be yourself; don’t get lost in the stress of the real world. Remember to laugh. Remember all your big, world-changing dreams. Remember you are not alone in knowing things can be better in the world than they are now. Remember to chase after everything you want in life, but remember to hold tight to the things and people who make you who you are.
Remember to smile in the rain and cry in the sunshine. Remember to breathe in the frigid air, tasting winter; remember to blow dandelion seeds on the summer wind. Remember how to have fun.
Remember how to love.

I'm not offended at all, and I'm glad you liked it. I think the idea of jesus in the raw biblcal sense is great. He is love, god is love, and jesus existed on earth because god loved everyone so much that he would sacrifice his child for them. That's a sweet story. I'm just not into how a lot of churches have really screwed things up, saying jesus hated anyone ever. Jesus didn't hate the romans that kicked his ass for days on end. Of course he loves gays/blacks/people who are left handed. :-)
YES. I wish more people got it. It frustrates me that churches ruin what the Bible actually says.
