Ways to alienate your friends, Method #1:
12 years ago
Serve those above you for they advance you. Serve those below you for they support you. Serve those beside you for they will catch you.
Become religious.
Why is it that when most people find God, they seem to have lost life?
I consider myself spiritual, but it always seems religion more often than not, takes that away.
God isn't a set of rules that you're supposed to follow, God is supposed to be something that makes you better. Something that makes you easier to live with. Something that makes you feel life more fully. Something that makes you happier. Something that is fulfilling. Something that makes you more you.

I miss my friend.

I miss my friend.
But each time I visit it seems like we have less and less in common.
I guess... I just expected something different from him.
But I still miss him.
Religion makes people live for god, for something else, someone they will never see in their lifetime if he even exists. And when you don't live for yourself, you don't live at all. I've completely lost friends to one religion or another, they just stop being who they are, it's like they become an empty shell. They also become judgmental and cold, especially to people who don't believe.
It's really a sad thing that this happens, for all the good religion talks about, it does so much bad for people.
