The performance is convincing, we know every line by heart, only when no one is watching can we really fall apart

So I was having quite an interesting conversation with one of my friends about being raised in a christian home, we were both raised by christian parents and, although we both agreed we wouldn't change that given the chance, it can be a bad thing: When you're raised in an enviroment where you can quote bible verses on demand and have the parables drummed into you from five years old religion becomes a habit. It's painfully easy because you know all the right things to say and people are so easily fooled. This got me thinking about the above song, which I used to play on repeat, actually I used to play very little else, anyway this conversation lead onto the fact that you never really know what goes on in someones life, something I've realised over the past year...

What's my point? Christianity is easy to fake, a relationship with God is not, and there is a difference. Also, almost everyones life is more complicated than they let on... quite a short blog considering I havn't posted in a few weeks but there you go. :)
