Honesty

"When it comes to any relationship of any kind, honesty is most important. After honesty everything else will fall into place." 


I believe in that quote. I've been trying to live like that ever since my mom said it to me. When I see people who don't live by that, and try to lie and trick their way into, or out of things, it makes me frustrated. I don't understand why people just don't get it. 


Any little lie is bad. If you tell a whole bunch of little ones they add up to a big one. It doesn't matter the size. Lies aren't right. In relationships especially, telling the truth is necessary. 


Just tell the truth. Everything is easier if you don't lie. Because when you lie you have to remember to keep up with that lie. And then, if you lie to a bunch of people it will be hard to keep track of your lies. Then it will all spiral out of control, you'll be in a web of lies, and everyone will be mad at you. 

So, don't lie. Period.


If you tell the truth, you don't have to remember anything. -Mark Twain

Ready. Set. Go!

Hey guys! My name is Carrie. Why don't I introduce myself....

I am a 15 year old girl living in the suburbs of Philly. 
I do really good academic wise because I love learning. I also love thinking, just thinking about anything. Like, how small are we? And, if this is all just a dream, or why I'm really here. 
This past summer I found God. It was an amazing experience. I don't wonder anymore who put me here, but I still wonder why I'm here and what else is out there. 

I am going to use this blog mainly to just get my opinion out there. Because I think about a lot, I develop very strong opinions. But I don't want to be one of those people who are hard headed and not willing to look at the other side of things. Looking at the other side confirms my own beliefs. 
I am also going to write about things that relate to or happen to me. 
I honestly don't know exactly what I'm going to write about, I'm just going to take it day by day. 

Hope who ever reads this takes something from it. If one person changes themselves because of this, or is able to relate to what I write, I'd feel accomplished. Thanks for caring about what I have to say. :)

Here we go!
