"just close your eyes.."

When I was younger, I was taught that judgment can only be done by Him. So please explain to me why people who claim to be Christians are the worst about judging others they know nothing about? It amazes me how different the north is from the south. In the south, we have the "Bible belt" and people are typically extremely judgmental and are usually close-minded to new ideas. It is frowned upon to be out of the "norm." The north, however, is extremely liberal.


I just recently moved to the north and I must say, what a different experience!

My first week here, my brothers, girlfriend, and I all went into Chicago. I was amazed. The thing that amazed me the most was the fact that you can literally go into a Starbucks and come out only to find another one strategically placed directly across the street. Seriously? I mean I bet it'd be perfect for someone with Alzheimers but honestly why the hell do yankees feel they need duplicates of everything? Is it really a necessity? Then you take a walk through Old Town and you'd be amazed. Not one person looked up from the ground to make eye contact. But my girlfriend introduced us to the coolest little shop I've ever been into. The Spice House was like a chef's dream store. My brother was in Heaven. I thought we'd never leave.

That's all for today =)

  1. I was waiting for the day when there would be 3 Starbucks within 5 minutes of my house-there are. I'm sure there are plenty of differences between the north and the south, just be sure to always hold onto your roots.
