"Be soft. Do not let the world make you hard. Do not let the pain make you hate. Do not let the bitterness steal your sweetness. Take pride that even though the rest of the world may disagree, you still believe it to be a beautiful place."
I'm an optimist. I can find the beauty in anything. I'm creative. I love spontaneity, peace, & parties. I'm the farthest thing from shy. There's not one person on this earth that I don't care about. I like deep conversations, change, & random acts of kindness. Every emotion I feel is ten times as strong as yours. I have alot of empathy for other people. I'm real open minded & liberal. All I want to do is make at least one person's life a little easier. :D

Yeahh, those links tell you more about it.
Are PS2 games compatible with the PS3 system? if the answer is yes, are there any particular PS2 games that might not work on the PS3?
please&thanks
I read about it & it said that it`s compatible with all playstation models. It`s compatible with playstation 2 (20GB, 60GB, & 80GB)
"Sony stated that every PlayStation and PlayStation 2 game that observes its respective system's TRC (Technical Requirements Checklist) would be playable on PS3 at launch. SCE president Ken Kutaragi asked developers to adhere to the TRC to facilitate compatibility with future PlayStations, stating that the company was having some difficulty getting backward compatibility with games that had not followed the TRCs. Initial NTSC PS3 units include (see circuit board image) the CPU/rasterizer combination chip used in the slim PS2 (EE+GS) to achieve backward compatibility.[97] The backward compatibility function is region-locked. Initially, at launch, approximately 3% of PlayStation and PlayStation 2 titles had minor compatibility issues, including poor audio, system freezes or controller malfunctions. Popular games reported to have these glitches included Tekken 5 and Gran Turismo 4. Many games had also been reported to have problems with garbled or unreadable text on-screen and generally blurry image quality, but the January 24, 2007 software release, which updated the system to version 1.50, has fully resolved this issue."
Yeahh, you can read more about it on here.

alright 14/f.
boyfriends 14/m too
to start off me and my boyfriend have been together for more then a year and almost two years in december. trust me on this one, we really do love eachother. if you dont believe in this age of love then stop reading :) The past two weeks, we keep arguing. When the boyfriend and I are like with a group of friends somehow at some point of the day we'll start arguing. But i have NO IDEA what we argue about, like it must have been something stupid cause i dont remember. Honestly I think thats why were fighting, i dont know why but it seems we only fight when were with other people. Basically were not arguing anymore, but to prevent it where can we go to be alone? [my boyfriend and i live two blocks maway from eachother and many kids live around our area]
Hmmm.
Try have one day every week where you two just do something together alone. Like invite him over to your house or you go over to his house & watch a movie, talk, just hang out, etc. Or if you two think that`ll be boring, go see a movie & then walk over to a restuarant afterwards & get something to eat or go get ice cream. Or if you live near a mall, make up a list of a scavenger hunt & go there one day for the whole day & do everything on list. Or if you have pool in your neighborhood or at your house, just go swimming for the day & order pizza or something.
Goodluckkk! =]
15/f I've never had a boyfriend. and when I see couples or just boys and girls/men and women flirting...it makes me feel so sad.
when like a boy flirts with his girlfriend and then they kiss in the end or something, it drives me INSANE, and I want it SOOO badly..I want to feel that connection. I want a guy's arms around my waist...and I've never felt it. What can I do to overcome this awful feeling of loneliness? ;_; Am I alone??
Same here. =]
Don`t worry so much right now. Wow, you didn`t wanna hear that, did you? Haha, but think about it ... have you ever seen any of your friends the day that their boyfriend broke up with them? Psh, you do NOT want to feel like that. I always see my best friend & her boyfriend kiss, but I`m just like, "aww, how cute." & laugh, or something like that & try to take my mind off it. I bet that less than half of the people at your school have boyfriends right now, so you are definitely NOT alone. Just avoid watching romance movies for a while & you`ll be fine, haha.
You`ll find someone soon. EVERYONE does. =]
Goodluckk!
I want a laptop for my birthday or Christmas, but I can't decide between a Dell Inspiron 1420 or a Macbook.
I like the fact that the Inspiron you can pick what color you want, so it will be more me. But then the Macbook I'd probably just get white, which is kinda boring, although it's much sleeker and cool looking. My best friend has a Macbook and it's sooo cool. Like just the way it's set up, and now the new Leopard thing they are coming out with looks even cooler. Recently I was leaning more towards the Dell because I figured if it comes with Windows vista then it would be just as cool as Macs, but then I saw the new one for macs and now I want that one more. The only other concern would be price, but if I don't add more than I need to a Macbook, then they are pretty much in the same price range. I also saw for the new Leopard program for Macs that it has Bootcamp, which lets you run windows on it...but ahhh I still don't know. I wish i could get a Dell Inspiron with Mac Leopard on it. Arghhh! I really have no clue which one to choose. HELP! Which one is better?

This link just tells you about the Dell Inspiron.
http://www.starryhope.com/dell/2007/review-dell-inspiron-1420n-with-ubuntu/
This one kind of compares them like under the section where it says 'Good' & stuff.
I have the Dell Inspiron 1420 though, & I love it, but that`s just my opinion.
Goodluckkk!

hey. i really like this guy. so i texted him and said "i have something to tell you. i like you."
and he said "i thought you liked this other kid" and i said "no. thats before i started hanging out with you and that guys a real jerk."
and he goes "yeah he is"
and i go "is that okay that i like you?"
and he said "ya"
and i said "is there any chance anything could happen?"
and he said "maybe. ill talk to you tomorrow."
and i said "alright. night"
and he said "cya"
what does this mean?
does he like me?
does he not?
does he need time to think?
and the other thing is, he never texts people he just answers texts... this happened at like 11 oclock on saterday... what time do you think it would be ok to text him on sunday if he hasnt texted me? what should i say?
OHHH PLEASEE HELLPPPPPPPP!
Wow, he sounds pretty awesome if he didn`t freak out like most guys would. Luckyy. =]
If he didn`t like you, he would have freaked out or something or just not even answered. I think he likes you at least a little bit -- he just needs some time to think. I think he was just confused because he thought that you liked the other kid, & he`s just trying to sort everything out.
If he hasn`t texted you, try texting him like at 1pm or 2pm or something so he has some time to think after he wakes up & just say, "Hey. Did you think about what I said?" or something like that.
Good luckkk! =]
okay so
i've been seeing this guy Jacob for about 5 months now .
he lives with his best friend robert.robert and his ex Lucy broke up 2 weeks ago
well Robert is a very jealous person.
Jacob promised robert he wouldnt do anything with lucy. but robert made sure all of his friends didnt do anything with lucy. well jacob and i were kinda official but now we're just like not as serious.
well i know jacobs password for myspace but he thinks i forgot it...anyway, i see a message from lucy saying "i hate how we have to hide our friendship"
he replies
"yah i know it sucks but wait til i move out"
so last week jacob calls me and says, "if anyone calls just say im with you." and i said "okay but why"
he then said, "i'm going to hang out with a few friends and lucy is in the group and i told robert i wouldnt talk to her "
so i was like "okay whatever"
then he texts me the next day @ 6AM saying "goodnight baby.if anyone ask i was with you til 6AM"
so he hasnt called since tuesday so i call him blocked and just see if hes alive
so from tuesday -thursday i call blocked and later on thursday at about 11pm i was with my cousin and he calls and says "i know its you thats calling, give up."
so i denied it and my cousin took the blame.
so friday i was with this my friends cuz they were making fun of jacob and how he got in an accident so i sent jacob a text saying "i'm with my friends right now and the story they're telling me about your last accident is pretty funny"
so like 2 minutes later he calls and bitches at me saying
"how is it funny that i got in an accident"
i told him
"i'm not saying its funny, i'm saying the story i'm listening to is funny, cuz its so different from the one you told me"
well saturday i go on his myspace and read a message to lucy saying
"heyy cutie im at my parents and im just misssin you thinkin that you should be in my arms its like 446 i called you and a older guy answered sayin i had the wrong number i think it was your dad well anyways ill c you on sunday
Okay, he`s using you, which isn`t smart on his part after you`ve been helping him ... especially if you two have been seeing each other.
Seriously, I would just stop telling everyone that your with him. If he`s being sweet to you sometimes, it`s just so you won`t turn your back on him & stop covering for him when he needs you to. HE needs to take responsibility for HIS actions, not you. He`s just being selfish. If he`s randomly getting mad at you after you`ve been trying to help him, he`s just plain stupid & you really don`t deserve that. And if Robert is his best friend, then Jacob`s a HORRIBLE friend to that kid. And personally, I think Robert should know that he`s being stabbed in the back by the person who he 'thinks' is his best friend. Because normally when people think they`re protecting someone & then they find out some other way, everthing`s just worse.
Wait till he asks you to cover for him again. Then you just flat out say, "No." Obviously, he`ll get mad, but you know what? Don`t let it bother you. Trust me, you`re better off without him. When he asks you why, tell him that you`re tired of him using you & he`s gotta take the responsibility for his own actions. DON`T MENTION THE MYSPACE THING! If you somehow bring up the Lucy thing, just say that someone told you & don`t give him any names.
Good luck!
I didn't really know what category to put this in, so i hope it is in the right one. Sorry if it isn't. I really have a problume with self convidence. I am really shy, and never know what to say to people to keep a convo going. It takes me a long time to be able to really open up to people. I get really neurvous when i am in a large group of people. I always feel like everyone is judging me and dosent like me. When I was in 6th grade i always hung out with the popular kids then one day one of the girls called me and was like we voted you out of our group. I know it is really childish and rediculous. But it has really impacted me since then and I have forgiven some of those girls and moved on, but ever since then I have not had much self convidence. I am a junior, and i feel like I only have one close friend and the rest are just people to talk about, I really want to overcome my shyness and low self covidence. So any tips or advice. I know it sounds weired what happend to me in 6th grade but it really impacted me. Sorry so long and I dont think I am spelling covidence right because it looks way wrong so sorry. Thanks in advance!
Okay, I had somthing similar to this except a little bit worse happen to me last year.
I spent the whole summer so pissed off at all of these people & I wondered what it was that I did wrong. But finally a few weeks ago, I realized something. These people make up stuff & say stuff to start crap simply because they`re bored & they have no life. It has nothing at all to do with you. I`m sure they`ve done it to tons of people before. Plus, do you really want to worry about what they`re saying as soon as you walk about of them? The people that I was friends with .. if someone walked out of the room, they`d start talking about them rather they did anything or not.
The first month of school, I was basically saying what you`re saying. I had absolutely no self confidence & over half of my day was spent replaying everything that happened the year before. Finally I was thinking one day & .. well, you`re no different than anyone else. With the shy people, most people think they`re really nice anyways & they won`t believe a word the 'popular' people tell them about you, so don`t worry about that. & trust me, no one is judging you. Now I mean, if you go to school with a lime green shirt with a huge hole on the side, some purple capris pulled up to your chest, & some terrible looking suspenders .. you might get some second looks & get a judged a little bit. Haha. Trust me, there`s alot of people who those stupid kids have done this to & there`s even more people who hate them. Sure, they think everyone likes them ... but not everyone is stupid. Most people have seen how mean they really are & they know they don`t wanna be friends with people like that.
If you see someone who looks nice & is at least smiling, say hey to them. Or at lunch, go up to someone who looks nice & ask if you can sit there. 98% they won`t say no. =]
It`ll only take about three weeks to get kinda good friends though, & that way you`ll probably have started being friends with their friends. & then you can just keep building from that.
Good luck!
ok i dont know what to do me and my best friend started liing the same guy...we both added him on myspace he added both of us and sent me a message and started talking to me not her well i not a very outgoing person but my friend is...we both got his number and were texting him well my friend in text told him she was interested in him me not being as outgoing didnt...now she keeps telling me how she is hanging out and going places with him...but i dont want to here it...and she even admitted that if i were to have told the guy how i felt things would be different...but its like i cant tell him now because that would be screwed for her...but would it...i dont know what to do...but i have already got my heart broken once in the past couple months and this is not helping...what do i do????
please help...i am ready to give up on everything
She`s just telling you about how they`re hanging out to make you jealous. Not very nice, but that`s what she`s doing. When she does this, just smile & say, "Oh, that sounds really fun." Don`t even show even the tiniest sign of jealousy. Has he said anything about it? She might just be making it up so you`ll give up. Hey, it`s happened to me.
I know it`s hard cause you`ve already had your heart broken & you`re scared for it to happen again. If he doesn`t like you, then he`s an idiot. Trust me, they`ll be much better guys out there than him.
But, well, I`d just say go for it.
I mean, you never know what could happen if you never try. I was in this same situation a few years ago -- turns out, the guy was trying to make me jealous by going out with my friend & I didn`t know till AFTER he moved off to kentucky or something like that. Yep, I felt pretty stupid. I`m not exactly the most outgoing person in the world either, but I`ve learned from what happened before. If you want something, go for it & don`t let anyone or anything stand in your way. =]
Good luck!
14/F
Well everyone in my grade goes to all the school games and stuff, the problem is I dont and I want to be involved in that kind of stuff. Except the problem is that my enemie usuallly goes and I don't want drama. And she turned a lot of people againest me last year for no reason. What can I do to be more involved and get popular!
Woah, haha, I just had that issue last night.
There was a football game at my highschool & I went with about fifteen of my close friends, but then about ten of my ex-friends went to (The stuff your enemies did to you, that`s what these people did to me, so I know how you feel). If we saw them, we just turned around & walked in the other direction & they didn`t bother us at all. Sure, they might have been talking about us the whole time we were there, but at least we were having more fun than them.
She turned everyone against you cause she thought it would make HER more popular. Eventually though, she`ll get what she deserves -- what goes around comes around. =]
If you see her, just smile & keep walking past her. If she says something mean to you just keep smiling & say, "Sorry, I gotta go look for someone." & walk off. Most of the time if she says something mean, it`s cause she thinks it`ll make her friends think she`s cool or something & she`s just trying to piss you off. So basically, ignore it & pleeeeeease don`t let it get to you. Just know that she`s the pathetic one, not you, & walk away.
Just try and find some people who are your real friends. If any of your friend`s friends are going, most of the time, they`ll welcome you to be their friend. & then just keep building from their friends & trust me, by the end of this year, you`ll have at least twenty people who you can honestly say are your true friends.
Good luck! =]
Sorry if it's a stupid question.Ok,school barly started this week and I keep staring at my last year crush all the time.Sometimes he'll catch me looking at him or at least I think he see's me.Anyway would he get very suspious if I keeep doing that?
It kinda depends on the guy. Some guys just don`t notice anything & they`ll just think that you were looking at someone else or something else near them. On the other hand, there are the guys that think if you look at the poster above their head, then you`re staring at him & in love with them. Haha, most guys probably won`t think much of it though. After a while, he`ll probably notice it eventually.
Good luck! =]
ok im a guy my hair is so oo frizzy and dry like a lot. its just like puff. i hav culy hair kinda like a fro. my hair wasnt always like this, when i was little i had very nice hair. now its just dead. is it because i dont usually get it wet or use any product except for shampoo? what the hell do i do?
Hmm, it might just be cause it`s really humid where you live. Cause where I live, it`s making my hair be like that cause of the humidity & stuff.
You could try using conditioner or something too. Everytime you wash your hair, just put a little bit of conditioner on it for about two minutes & then rinse it out. You could try some anti-frizz stuff or something also.
okay so i have very thick hair
and its really courase!
does anyone else have this problem?
i straighten it alot but whenever i do it, it makes it feel gross and it doesn't smell very good it smells burnt.
can anyone help me?!
to make my hair softer.
does anyone else have this problem?!
Your hair might just be like that cause you straighten alot, cause that`s what happened to me. I just gave up on all those products that supposedly 'repair damage' cause none of them worked, and I just let it grow out.
My advice to you it to just let it grow out & take VERY good care of it once you see it starting to grow out. I mean deep conditioning it, not straightening it, etc.
For now, try not to straighten it as much, get it trimmed at least half an inch or an inch/two inches every month. Deep condition it twice a week with a good quality conditioner. Try not to blow dry it. If your hair is curly & you don`t know what to do with it, scrunch it. If it`s straight, just put it up or do the low pigtails or braid it. Do you color/highlight it? If you do, I`d probably stop till it grows out, cause that damages it alot. If you really wanna straighten it & you`re just worried about the smell though, try this stuff called BioSilk & try a better straightener like the CHI. It works really good & everyone I talk to reccomends it & it`s what I have & what they use at all the hair places.
Good luck! =]
I love my boyfriend to death, but he always goes from being nice and sweet, to an a**hole at the drop of a hat. We've been going out for two years so i know what gets to him, so im always avoiding saying or doing thingsthings so he doesn't blow up at me. He gets really mad and throws tantrums and throws things or swears and takes all of the frustration out on me. Like today for instance, we had a really great day, and then i went over his house to help him make a posterboard of pictures for his dads upcoming party, and everything was fine until i told him that a spot where he put a picture didn't look right, and he gets mad. he flings the pictures to the ground, and says "hes done" and "i can do the f**king thing by myself." He gets mad over the stupidest things, really. I finished it without him, when it wasn't even my own dad, and i cleaned up his mess, because i didnt want to start anything else. Bad example maybe. But there has been times when he has literally punched walls, flipped coffee tables, threw whatever object was around, just screams and up and leaves, and i get scared.
I always feel like a bad girlfriend in the end. And i shouldn't because i do so much for him, and hes just unappreciative. He makes me feel so low of myself sometimes. He always ends up apologizing, but im getting sick of the same old thing. He always says hes sorry, and that hes gonna work on his anger, and that he loves me, but i dont even know if i can believe it anymore. I love him, a lot, but i dont want his anger to get to the point where he begins to physically take it out on me, because it's hit emotionally & verbally already. Like what do i do? Some days i just want to end it [whenever he's acting like this], and some days i dont want to because i love him. its really hard. i try talking to him, but he gets mad. Go figure. Any advice? Open for anything. Please.
My dad does the exact same thing.
Almost every day he throws fits & freaks out at someone in my family & I h-a-t-e it.
When he does that, just walk away. I think those things you said basically describe alot of symptoms of being bi-polar & my dad acts like him, & that`s what the doctor said he was -- bi-polar. He even freaked out when he was told THAT. Pretty sad, right?
I honestly don`t think your boyfriend can control it, but you should seriously break it off now. I know it`s hard cause he can be so sweet sometimes, but think about when he`s the complete opposite & throwing things, etc. & take in to consideration what you mentioned earlier -- it can get worse. If you ever h ave a problem later on in your relationship somehow, will you ever be able to fix it or talk about it? Nope, he`ll get mad either way.
So, I know how you feel, but pleeeeeeease, end it if you can. =/
Good luck!
Well i have a problem im to nice i guess like when someone calls me a slut i get upset easily if someones says im ugly or calls me a bitch or anything i get upset and i cant have a fight with someone cause im too scared im 15/f by the way and when i see someone upset i get upset when i see someone ina fight i cry when someone tells me off i cant stand up to myself and i just start crying i need help :( please any advice that i can become a little bit tougher =[
Anything will do ?
xoxo
Thanks
I`m the same way. Everyone just always tells me I`m a really sympathetic person or something, haha, so I guess that`s why. But trust me, there`s nothing wrong with it -- hey, at least you care about people. =]
Just tell yourself, "They`re no better than me. If they actually took the time to say that to me, they must be pretty desparate for some attention." & walk away or tell them off -- whichever you feel more comfortable doing. But whatever you do, don`t cry...that`s why they said that to you in the first place -- to make you cry.
I have been dating my girlfriend for two years in October. She is the most amazing girl i have ever met and about 7 months ago i gave her a promise ring and i know she is the girl i want to spend the rest of my life with. Sometimes we get into little fights and blow them way out of proportion. About a month ago we had one of these fights and she wouldn't come to a party with me that night. At that party, i got pretty drunk and slept with a girl from another school. I didn't tell her about it and everything seemed like it was fine until this girl i slept with showed up at my baseball game and just so happens to sit down next to my girl friend and her best friend without knowing it was them. They start talking and pretty soon Becca, the girl from the party, has to go so she asks my girl friend if she could give me a ring back that i had left at her house (the promise rings we gave each other) of course my girlfriend gets curious why this girl has my ring and so she asks becca about it and she told her the whole thing. After the game my girlfriend brought the ring up to me and said that my "little friend Becca" thought i would want it back and asked her to give it to me. I was totallly shocked and had no idea even what to say. She broke it off right then and there. I need to find some way to make it up to her. She is the love of my life and i totally regret what i did but she won't even talk to me which is really awkward since i am at her house all the time since her brothers are my best friends and her dad is my football coach. How can i get her back?
Explain EVERYTHING to her -- & she finds it out from someone else, she`ll get mad all over again. Tell her something along the lines of this, "Look, I know you shouldn`t want to talk to me & I know you probably don`t care what I`m saying right now, but I`m gonna explain it to you anyways. I know I was an idiot and if I were you, I would be mad too. In fact, I probably would have done exactly what you did. I was drunk and I didn`t know what I was doing -- it won`t ever happen again. I don`t care about her, I care about you. I swear to you...I would never intentionally hurt you, you have to trust me on that if you haven`t believed any other word I said. I`m so sorry. If I could take it back, believe me, I would. I love you so much though, I can`t even put it into words how much I love you. I`m so sorry, I`ll do anything -- just please forgive me." If she won`t listen to that, write it on a note & tell her brothers to give it to her. Call her & leave a message on her phone or you can just e-mail it to her. Ooh, or you can just type/write it & put it in an envelope, leave it on her porch, & buy her a very, very nice gift with roses & chocolate or something. I`d go for the last one if I were you though. =]
Good luck!
my school came up with a new dress code and it completely sucks. parents and students were kicked out of open house and kids were suspended on the first day of school!!! for example our neckline son our shirts have to make a srait line above our armpits which is REALLY high and our shirts have to come down past our belts and our pants can't touch the floor. what are some good things i can say to the administration to get them to change these outrageous rules? (*we don't have uniforms)
Wow, that sucks.
I understand the part about the shirts being past your belts, but the rest is ridiculous.
Alot of clothes that are the right length, size, etc. cost too much money & are extremely hard to find now & some people don`t have that kind of money to spend on new clothes. No, it`s not a 'fashion show, but you guys aren`t gonna dress like old ladies in turtle necks & sweat pants ... you should be able to wear what people your age wear. & if someone`s short, they aren`t gonna go & get jeans made special for them & spend over a hundred dollars making it so that they fit perfectly. Talk to your parents & see if they agree with you. Most likely, they will. Get them to talk to at least ten-twenty of your other friend`s parents & get them to go up to the office & talk to the principal. Tell them to explain some of the things that I did earlier in this. Parents always make more of a difference than the kids, trust me.
& getting suspended at open house? I`m pretty sure they aren`t even allowed to do that.
there are these girls at my school and from what happened last year i don't really want to go back to school and see them. they are mean and rude to me and my friends people call them ##### and the terrors. (i don't want to put the name for my safety) they make fun of what we wear then they get soemthing exactly like it and wear it and tell us we don't have enough class as they do. so what should i do? should i try to get back at them? should i gossip about them?
Woah, I was about to ask a question pretty similar to this.
Alright, I know EXACTLY what you`re going through. Whatever you do -- don`t gossip about them. PLEASE, please, p-l-e-a-s-e don`t! It`ll make things way worse than they already are, trust me on that. Don`t try to get back at them -- I know that`s the one thing that you don`t want to hear. When everyone would tell me that, I would just walk out of the room wondering why they couldn`t give me normal advice. But trust me, it`s exactly what you need to do. I even go to the point where I asked my mom if I could be homeschooled...she laughed & said no. So caring, right?
I saw the girl who was being mean to me yesterday & you wanna know how she greeted me? She yelled, "Woah! Could you get any uglier?" She wore the same shirt today. Hah, I decided to try everyone`s advice. I smiled & said, "Hey. I know, I thought nobody would notice! I love your shirt though. It`s so cute! I hope you had a good summer. Well, I gotta go." I looked at her out of the corner of my eye & she looked so confused. Haha, so with every mean thing they say to you, say something nice back. You can`t insult a compliment, right? =]
Good luck!
I would prefer Christians who are strong in their faith to answer this one, particularly those who have gone through what I am experiencing now.I was raised by a Christian mother who puts her faith completely in Jesus. I never doubted God and was saved at the age of twelve at VBS. I was baptized at 15. Since the day I was saved, four years ago, I've prayed to God every morning, night, and whenever else I felt like it. I read my Bible every morning and night and have almost finished it. I attend church every Sunday and do a Bible study with my family every night. I also attended a small Devotion before school every day for three years. I was certain that I had a personal relationship with Jesus. Then, one night recently, I started thinking. I was just laying in bed and all of the sudden, a wave of doubt hit me. I started questioning everything, including my belief in Jesus. I've prayed and cried so much about these things that I've made myself sick over worrying about them. I've been reading the Gospel again and again trying to find solid evidence. Then, I started wondering if everything in the Bible was real. Please, someone help ease my mind. I want to reccommit myself to Jesus, but first I need to put to rest all of these doubts and rekindle my faith. How can I do this?
I`m a christian also, & trust me, I`ve been there too. Surprisingly, it only took one simple website to change my doubts.
If you don`t do anything else, go to this site. It has six straight-foward reasons why God is real and they make more sense than anything people have told me if you think about them.

So, does God exist? Looking at all those facts on that website, one can conclude that a loving God does exist and can be known in an intimate, personal way. =]
