Medicine No Man Wants To Taste

Think about your daughter, mother, sister, auntie, and grandmother.

Ok, let me set this straight. Most men have had some point and time where we thought about women in inappropriate ways. We have thought about having sex with multiple women. What I mean by "we" is men as a whole. Vice versa, women have some of those same thoughts. Don't get me wrong, sex is a natural God giving gift to marriage and it's nothing wrong with it in marriage. Notice that I said "marriage." I don't believe in compromising sin. But that's a topic within it's self. Not only have we had thoughts about it, but some of us have actually done it. Some men use women to take of care of us. Some of us have women cooking for us, washing our laundry, providing a place for us to sleep, and giving us money. Notice that I said "some" because it's not all of us who are dogging women. Some of us beat on our women and called them all kinds of names because of jealousy, insecurities, and etc. I'm 22 years old and I've never experienced nothing that i'm talking about. On the other hand, I have had some dirty thoughts before and I sill do sometimes. I'm not all that experienced when it comes to women, but that's also a topic of it's own. A lot of men have made the mistake of telling a woman "I love you" and not really meaning it or not showing it. It seems to be fun while we're doing it, but have we thought about the women in our own families? Men, have we thought about our own daughters or unborn daughters? Have we thought about our younger sister(s)? How would we feel if our daughters, sisters, aunties, mothers, cousins, or even grandmothers come to us crying because a man stole from them, raped them, cheated on them, or beat on them? Things change when you are the victim or on the defending end. Yesterday, I was on my school's campus with two of my friends. One of my friends came out and said, "you know we're going to change the way way we think about women when we have daughters and even before." He also said that if I had younger sisters then i'll be more like him(referring to me). This is just something to think about. You may have to taste your own medicine one day and I promise you that it won't taste good won't taste good at all.

18 Things I Want To Do Now That I'm 18

I'm technically an adult, so I'm legally required to live a little, right?

Happy Birthday Cake

For the entirety of my high school career, I was always seen as the goody-two-shoes. I never got in trouble with a teacher, I kept stellar grades, and when I wasn't doing extracurricular activities, I was at home studying. Even when I did go out, it was usually with a bunch of fellow band geeks. The night would end before 11:00 PM and the only controversial activity would be a fight based on who unfairly won a round of Apples-to-Apples when someone else clearly had a better card (I promise I'm not still holding a grudge).

Now that I'm officially an adult, I want to pursue some new things. I want to experience life in a way that I never allowed myself to do prior to entering college. These are the years that I'm supposed to embark on a journey of self-discovery, so what better way to do that than to create a bucket list?

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.
