Quote:We are all prostitutes.
The currency of our trade isnt always measured by intimate nights or folded dollar bills we play at much higher stakes: we barter our hearts away. While the ladies of the night conceal their faces with layer upon layer of makeup and loiter in dim alleys; we, unlike them, know no shame. We brandish our statuses as prostitutes flaunt them even revel in our debauchery.

I don't understand the point of this, at all. It's basically saying "settle down" and throwing some jesus in there for good measure.
Maybe i'm missing the point entirely, but I really don't get it. All the stuff about self confidence, approval, hurt ect just don't make any sense to me and i can't figure out what this is about.
OH. Wait I get it.
It's about believing in jesus. everything else you do in life will not satisfy you, but accept jesus into your life and VOILA, HAPPY ENDING.
hahaha ok. Anyone who doesn't accept jesus into their life is a prostitute who sells themselves.

Quote:This story doesnt have to end with Hurt and Resentment. In the light of Easter, and what Jesus did on the cross, there is hope yet. There is hope out there for those of us who have fallen so far from grace and who have been searching so hard and so long and giving ourselves away to people, to things that will never satisfy.
This is the amazing story of grace. If only we return to Him, He will restore us.
Went backwards, stopped reading there.
If we're all going to be damned I at least want to claim I did it myself.

Razmos Wrote:Ok, so the moral of the story is: Stay with the first person you met and married and saved yourself for, because you are better off giving your whole heart to one person than parts of it to many and so you shouldn't go searching for someone else, even if the person you married doesn't satisfy you or make you happy anymore.

It's a very very very long way of saying: Come back to Jesus, He will always love you.
And when I say very very very long: [MENTION=9951]G-Meister[/MENTION]; please replace it with a link to the original and maybe the first two paragraphs. No reason to copy something this long in full.

Food for thought? What should I be thinking? Debating with myself why I'm not religious?

Erase the Jesus part in the end then, I didn't read it for the religious undertone. So sorry.
