sometimes when you listen to music you hear a line....or two....that strike you as amazingly true. and it makes you realize you aren’t alone in the way you feel...and it helps you see a little better how you DO feel.
“but what
what if no one’s watching
what if when we’re dead
we are just dead
what is there’s no time to lose
what if there’s things we gotta do
things that need to be said
you know I can’t apologize
for everything I know
I mean you don’t have to agree with me
but once you get me going
you better just let me go
we have to be able to criticize
what we love
to say what we have to say
‘cause if you’re not trying
to make something better
then as far as I’m concerned
you are just in the way
i mean what
what is no one’s watching
what if when we’re dead
we are just dead
I mean what
what if god is just an idea
someone just put in your head”
what if No one’s Watching - Ani Difranco - Imperfectly.
I was just talking with my best friend Kristen today about my feelings about god or the lack of one. And this quote really sums up how I feel. What if god is just an idea..and I don’t live for today and making today a better day to live. What if I don’t make it better and then there is no tomorrow and I didn’t make a difference or have a good time? That would suck...and be such a colossal waste of life. I just can’t believe a being would create a whole planet of people just to live and serve him/her. What a pointless existence. What vain being? It’s a parent having a child just to prove how great of a parent you can be.
I don’t have the answer to the question: Is there a god? But I think it’s OK to not have an answer. As long as I make a difference and I am happy then I think I don’t need an answer. Even a negative difference is a difference, but a positive one makes for happier people, including the person who made the difference.
