That old chestnut didn't take long to rear his (or her) potentially ugly face. The thing about religion is that it's a sensitive topic, and although I understand that many people have grown up with certain beliefs and others simply believe because they need something to believe in, I personally do not follow a religion so I really can't say much about it. In fact the closest I get to a religion is my endless love and obsession for self expression through fashion, and my constant growing appreciation for animal (and environmental) rights that has come with my choice to leave meat behind five years ago (I am now two years a vegan, unbelievable given my desire for bacon back then - my friends and family still mention how I use to sing about it...) So yeah, religion; we're all entitled to it, whatever you want to believe in it's yours and no one has the right to take it from you. But me? I guess I just choose to believe in myself, and if I put positivity and love out into the world that isn't such a terrible thing. And if times ever do happen to get dark - which they may every once in a while - I'll lean to the love of my friends and family as they would to I, and that's all I need.
Quickest blog entry I've ever done... I better add a photo of a cat...

ReplyDeleteI giggled a bit at the fact you used to sing about bacon aha, and well done on two years of being vegan!
That cat's rocking the sombrero...!

Cheers Issy, I wasn't so sure about writing my bit on religion so I appreciate the positive feedback. I loved that you wrote about pancakes, haha. A worthy religion indeed! Oh and yes, I totally had a bacon song, something along the lines of having it morning, noon & night...
