A movement within a movement that's not really a movement -- non-negative blogging. This reminds me of the "I'll never start" campaign the school had when I was in 4th grade. I was supposed to pledge that I would never smoke cigarettes. Nothing could hold me to this but my word and what did I know, at age 10, what I'd want to do later? So I didn't do it. And I won't pledge to be non-negative because I can't promise that.
I do know that after you die, you're forced to review your life's actions-- evidently your mettle as a person is determined by how you act towards others, specifically did you act out of love whenever possible. I believe this to be true and do my best to act accordingly. To me, this makes a lot more sense than abstinence (because the Bible said so) or judging people (because the Bible said so) or even following a long list of rules (because the Bible said so). I mean, shit, that same Bible also says to throw a menstruating woman outside of the house while she's bleeding. I don't see a lot of menstrual huts on my way to work so I'm thinking that the Bible or any religious doctorine is an evolving thing.
Now that's a mouthful.
