sometimes, I'm a d-bag.

So yesterday,being the great person I am,  I made a mistake and made a mockery of someone else's belief system.  Naturally I was on Tumblr and I typed in the word "Easter" into the search tags bar. Hoping to find a cute picture of bunny and reblog (put a picture on to my Tumblr) it, I found this instead.
Again back to that great person I am and I put this on my Tumblr and underneath it wrote, "Why does this exist?" Thinking I was so funny and clever and thought nothing of it. This morning, I got on Tumblr to find that the person who had originally posted this picture to Tumblr sent me a message. This is what it said
"How ignorant is you to assume that a member of ICP doesn't celebrate Easter?" Instantly I felt terrible. 
I made fun of what someone believes in. No matter how wrong I may find it to be, it is their belief. 

Then my thoughts go to Jesus the Christ. The root of Easter. I think about He died for everyone. How he sacrificed His for me to make choices and forgive again and again when I'm making fun of someone. Or when I'm a complete hypocrite and act like I respect everyone's belief system when I don't. Or when glare at the the lady on Trax who always asks me for money. He puts up with all my crap. More than that, He puts up with everyone's vices. I don't want to be preachy but I will say this. Jesus loves you.  Happy Easter and maybe next year, I'll be a little kinder to others.
