Recently I was talking to one of my friends mother..who had been a real hippy "back in the day." She told me that she beleived that money can't bring u happiness.

I don't wanna sound like a shallow fool...but I beg to differ. I think that the world runs on money..this in itself has a major affect on how we feel.

Take for instance happiness could be you being settled. How can you put your self under a roof along with your family without the "bling bling"?

As far as love in concerned I'm sure that people do fall in love just because they are in love. Although I think the majority of us would rather be assured that who we are with are "set" as far as money. That plays a part in who we pic to spend out lives with right?

So I do think money = happiness, reassurance
and at some points..it can back fire..but overall it is a good thing.

long time no post, if you have all visited my profile page you will notice the picture of john lennon. I recently showed my friend laura the pic and in 10 mins she had drawn it. She dosen't think that she has a talent I know u guys would encourage her to think other wise..so tell me/her what u think :)

It has come to my attention lately that more and more events and complaints about priests whom take advantage of the children whom they care for...(meaning teach, prey with, etc)

I had recently been sent a forward that asked u to state your opinion on the matter...i didn't know much about it so i didn't reply.

Some ppl claimed that it was just that most priests were homosexual..so they took out what the church saw as a sin on the young boys they tended to. That is just a bunch of bullshit. Even if you are homosexual..as a server of god...u do not push that kinda evil onto an innocent child.

Most people find that religion and god is something to get hope from. How the hell do you find hope when relgion is being used as a reason for someone to take advantage of you.

This has really changed my opinion on the church...those ppl are sick and anyone that trys to cover up the faults of the church are disgusting. A place to worship and work for god..but where satin practises.

what do you all think about it?
