    What 1 thing do u need to make ur life complete?

    I've got a fear of living life without making a difference in anyone's life. As in, not representing Christ, or love, in the many chances to - in other words, living a life of waste (in my opinion). I am sure God will give plenty of opportunity. :)

    (Sigh) Why I remain agnostic...

    You know... I am going to throw this as just an idea. Why don't you just kind of look for signs of God in your everyday life? Sounds nuts, but at a time when I had actually left my city to get away from struggling with faith and stuff at home, crazy coincidences started happening all the time...

    A question about LASTING faith...

    Is it normal, or acceptable, just to feel like not even wanting to THINK about God/faith/etc for a little while, as if you need a vacation from thinking of all of that stuff? My faith seems to have lose it's zest more than in the usual downtime. Anyone have experiences with this?

    I just need to rant

    What a silly way to do it, but I am so upset that I can't even think straight; I just had a fight with my dad about something stupid, but it turned into a big yelling match and him telling me that all of my efforts to reach out to inner city kids in the past couple weeks, which I have pretty...

    A little Canadian Student Loan rant

    No no no, don't move out - but when you are filling out the application form for a student loan or whatever, specify that you PAY RENT to stay in your home. That might be easier...

    A little Canadian Student Loan rant

    SOTF, I totally understand what you are going through!!! Yikes, it's totally unfair. The scale in which they look at is how much your parents make and doesn't vary that much even when considering HOW many people are in the house. I would honestly suggest just waiting until your debt is down with...

    Smoking?

    I smoke. :sorry: You know what's sad? that's probably the first time I have admitted it in over half a year - usually say I'm just "taking a break from quitting", which sounds ridiculous. It's so gross, but at the same time so good, and the stints of wanting to quite way too fleeting!!! I hate...
