Blankets


 Hey guys! For my response to Blankets, I wanted to ask a fat question. I’m not a very religious person, but I’m also not opposed to it either. I understand having a relationship with God or believing in a higher power. To me it makes you who you are and gives you purpose, or direction, or meaning, which is amazing. Maybe some day I’ll find something to feel so strongly about. Anyway, some things about his religion and the things he experienced made me feel uncomfortable. I really didn’t like the idea that when we die and go to heaven (a place that’s supposed to be perfect) we lose our relationships. I know when I die I’ll just be so excited to see my family, but if we lose our relationships that will mean nothing. I might feel this way because I don’t have a great devotion to a God, but I can’t help thinking about my Gram. She attends church every Sunday, prays, and has an amazing relationship with God, my uncle died when he was only 22 and of course it devastated my Grandparents. I would just feel so terrible if my they died and were so excited to finally see their son, and it just doesn’t matter.   I just wanted to hear some other opinions about this or another religious issue in the text. =D
