For our blog this week we have talk about our thoughts on contradictions. First things first, everybody on planet Earth has contradictions, but many people have different ways of dealing with them. I'm the type of person that doesn't really think to much about the contradictions that I have now or that I've had throughout my life. They just kinda enter my head and next thing I know, they're gone. Now that I'm starting to thing about them for this blog I'm beginning to realize things I didn't see before.
One contradiction I never really thought about is how I'm not religious at all but I noticed at times when I'm scared I will sometimes ask God to keep me safe. I don't know why I do it. I know that it won't help me but I do it anyway, in some weird way it's comforting. This is probably the biggest contradiction I've noticed with myself and I believe that it says a lot about me. I believe that is shows that in a time where I feel scared or uncomfortable I will do things I'm not usually used to prevent any sort of disaster from happening.
I've never gotten angry with myself for having contradictions because like I said before, every single human being on Earth has them. So if everybody has them what's the point of beating yourself up for being normal.
I agree, Adrian. Everyone has contradictions that we don't really think about, they're just there. I also have that contradiction of not being religious yet praying to God in certain situations. It would bring me comfort even though I don't believe in it.
