aren't there times when we teens juz so desperately want to have an identity??
so how?

we desperately need to have a sense of belonging...
so how?

we find the most popular trends or group or whatever is
"JUST SO COOL!!!!"

and usually we subscribe to a certain way we talk and dress the way those celebs do, and we hang out with the popular ppl... or at least desire to...
cuz it feeeeeeeeeellllllsss soooooo gooooooooood to be popular..

but...

the irony is that in searching for an unique identity thru conforming, and being cool...
we lose our own individual identity...

i can understand it's juz so difficult for ppl our age (teenagers.. and now tweenagers) to not conform...
it's a phase we must go thru....

in the secular environment, our lives are so different from our church life, and even our family life.
like i said previously, it's the "change profile" way of life...

maybe even in the secular, sometimes we are so caught up in being so "kool",
(or creating the facade or projection that we are),
that we go into deep immorality, and some even renounce their faith,
coz saying you're a Christian is "like... duh.. so un-cool!"...

or maybe you face the struggle of being inconsistent.
that in the secular environment, you tend to show a different facade from your church life..
and you might be struggling...



hmm... i was thinking, maybe we should try to get fellow brothers and/or sisters in Christ in your class/workplace/cca/ or anywhere you are in an secular environment, to keep each other accountable or even keep our behaviour in check.

i know this is kind of difficult especially when most of the time we are the only ones who are Christian in our class/workplace (or rather, the only one you know...).
