And we can have it all but it wouldn't be enough.

I miss having something to believe in. I think I must have been kinder when there was a God to put my faith in. A naive kind, but kind nonetheless. I think I more readily believed in things, in people, and I was easily convinced, easily impressed. Maybe I was happier. Was I selfish? Is Christianity selfish? Maybe it is in the sense that you are not really thinking of others in an effort to understand them, but you are thinking of yourself versus everybody else in an effort to change them. I've always had that contention with Christianity, the problem with Christians trying to change everyone without attempting to understand anyone.

And I know I'm offended by it, when someone says I am not who I'm supposed to be. What does supposed to be even look like?
