Free write: Religion

Man these past couple months have been crazy for me. I have no idea what I'm doing in life or what I’m going to do but I just go where the breeze takes me. I’ve never been a religious dude but lately I think I’ve found myself and what I want to follow. My parents have always believed in god and always have had a strong influence on me but I never really had faith. I believe faith is just based off geography. I looked into synagogues, churches, cathedrals, and Buddhist temples lately.  I read the first and new testaments and was still not interested in any faith of those religions. I am very tolerant of religion but I have found Buddhism. I don’t believe in reincarnation or finding Nirvana. I want to focus on myself to be a better person and to have less materialistic things. I sound like a hippy but fighting over beliefs is just stupid and people need to chill out. So many lives have been lost do to all this hate ignorance and religion. Although I do respect religion I don’t respect the intolerance of some.  Sometimes you want to make the world a better place. Humanity is pretty crazy and weird.
