Trusting Your Thoughts With A Friend

My friend asked me if I wanted to workout. I haven’t lifted a single weight or ran even one mile in about a month, so I said yes. Afterwards, we ate at Cookout, and we started talking about the things that you should never talk about in public; we spent about four hours talking about these things. We came up with three major topics: religion, sexuality, and racism. As for the specific details within this conversation, those could be saved for a future blog. Basically the entire time, I was taking in account of what he was saying while I tried to justify my own beliefs by either building upon his own or solidifying my own case. Then I thought to myself, “Should I really be talking about these things with him?” “What would he think of me if I told him what my beliefs and ideologies are?” “Do I really believe the things that I’m saying I believed?” After that, my head started hurting, so I had to stop talking for a while. Back to the point. By the end of the conversation, we both had a nice time, so I thought that this was great. Talking about incomprehensible topics and controversial subjects are a great way to strengthen friendships, right? At least in my opinion. After the conversation, my mind went into tangents like world tolerance, afterlife, and how mad my mom was when I didn’t tell her that I would be spending four hours at Cookout talking to my friend. Then I had a great thought of sharing my thoughts with the world! By starting a blog! Ladies and gentlemen: I present to you “Deep Thinking” by JP Mitra.
