youtube lesson.

this is going to sound odd. but i am crying over youtube. i'll try to explain. so most people have heard of chris crocker. most people know his name from the leave britney alone video that made him famous. but what people fail to see is that he is a person. if you do not like his videos that is one thing. but to attack him as a person is a totally separate thing. i understand that some people may not agree with his lifestyle choice but that does not give anyone the right to say some of the stuff they say. it just makes me so sad that people could do that. if people truly believe because you are gay you should get aids and die i think i am a bit sad to even live in this world. we are all humans. i admire chris crocker not be because of his videos although they are pretty cool. i admire him because he has the confidence to do something i could probably never do. to not conform to what is the "normal" thing. and not stop because of what people say. i do not do well with criticism. because i do care what people think of me. i tend to try to change to go along with what is the cool thing.

this may seem like a odd connection but i think this is exactly what jesus preached. jesus himself was ridiculed for his beliefs and torn down by even some of his so-called friends. jesus dared to be the different one. and as christians i believe this is what god calls us to do. to be different. to stand out. to be CHRIST like. to not care what people say about what we belief. we call ourselves christians. but i think we need to take it more seriously. we need to not just read the gospel, but start living it everyday. not just the days when it is easy. we need to reach out and show everyone that we are different because we have jesus. because there is more to life than what being what everyone wants us to be. and when it comes to this i am not the best example. i told myself i could not go into ministry because i did not want to be judged. and i do not do mean things but i do not always stand up for what is right. i am not perfect. sometimes i feel like one of the people sitting in the back of the courtroom just watching and not having a voice. but it is our job to be jesus's voice and to stand for him in a world that is full of hate and to spread his message of love. so maybe i need to stop typing and start talking. haha i am so lame.

the end.
