My Egocentric and Sociocentric Thoughts
I believe Jesus Christ gives salvation. I believe that hollywood is its own sort of cult, constantly preaching its beliefs. I believe pornography is degrading and dehumanizing toward women. I believe we are responsible for our actions. I believe that all children are a gift from God. I believe in a child's innocence. I believe in a loving embrace. I believe in the power of our words. I believe in a person's ability to change. I believe in trusting friends. I believe tears and laughter are the best medicine. I believe there is global warming. I think Janet Jackson and Micheal Jackson are the same person... I believe that Area 51 exisits. I believe that the pyramids were built by the Egyptians. I belive that nature matters more than nurture. I believe there are ghosts. I wish Santa was real, I never got to believe in him. I think all news is biased. I believe the beauty of a smile. I believe in the smell of Christmas morning. I believe in the look in my grandma's eyes when she says she loves me. I belieive in the comfort of my best friends arms. I believe in the satisfaction of earning my own paycheck. I believe in the sunset. I believe in the tranquil Hawaiian beach in the evening. I believe in the cool breeze on a hot day. I believe in the significance of reaching a goal. I believe in long horn pride. I believe in romance. I believe in miracles. I believe in my little sister's hugs. I believe in life.

That is so sweet. Sounds kind of like a poem.
I wish I believed in Santa, too. When I was little, I actually wrote him a letter and put out some cookies before Christmas. I didn't get nothing the next morning. Of course, maybe it was because we didn't have a Christmas tree. It was either that, or my family didn't celebrate Christmas (only New Years)...hehe.
Great blog! I really like the part about you believing that nature matters more than nurture. Thats a strong statement, and I hope I am interpreting it correctly. Do you mean that you believe that that things are more real in their original form than things that are manipulated? Also, i really like the part about longhorn pride, i like where your head is at!

Wow. I enjoyed reading this. Very true feelings. The ending summed it all up very nicely. Also, you might have a point about the Micheal Jackson thing. lol.
Wt: My family celebrated Christmas but my parents always told us that Santa was not real. My parents viewed it as a secular or commercial distortion of the true meaning of Christmas. At the end of the day, I just think they meant well, but I missed out on a small part of my childhood. I guess it's not that big of a deal, I am well adjusted.
Phil,
Thanks. Yes, you understand what I mean about nature versus nurture. I really believe that people can be influenced and manipulated but ultimately it comes down to how they are naturally.
