    Where I stand on happiness and faith

    I feel like a different person then I used to be. I do stuff now that I would have seen as bad before, in my church going days. I have always been prone to feel guilt and the obligation to do the “right thing”. I blame this on being the big sister and being close to my mom who thought the same way. As I have grown and the more I see in the world and the more I open myself to it, the more I question the morals I grew up following. Don’t get me wrong I am not out robbing banks or anything. But I think there is so much in the world to learn and love that church tells us is wrong. Is it church or faith or the Bible or God. I don’t know. I just know that I am finally starting to be happy with myself and who I am and I am not going to let anyone or anything take it away. I have lived too much of my life worrying about what others think of me. How can I ever expect someone to love me fully unless I love myself fully?
