g'day=]

hello! =]
Being here in Australia has already started to change me. Fast I know and i can't believe it either but i have. I didn't relize this until my host dad"Kenny-boy" =] pointed it out to me..

It has made me look at my home, my country, my way of life and up bringing so much more than i thought possiable. in the interviews for applying for rotary i was asked how i would handle things like being questioned about religion, my way of thinking, how i would reacted to people asking, questioning and maybe even disapproving of my way of being and living.
I knew i could handle things like this. i fell that people have every right to their own oppions and it was there right to make them known. I wasn't worried about it and i still not worried about it. I have my own oppions about things here.
I've been amazed at how unrelgious they are here. In my philosophy class I felt like i was fighting for who i was. There where 3 people in my class of 20 that believed in god. and i wasn't scared to put my hand up in fact i was the 1st one to do so. but I guess for starters I come for America a country that is based on religion.. (kind of that could be debated at some points..) And also living in a small southern country town.. Although i dont go to church i still have my belifies, morals, and out look on life. And i'm sure a lot of people in my town would disagree with my thoughts and out looks on this subject. But i'm still dumbfound that there are so many people that believe there is no god of any kind. they think so different. i love to listen to their outtake on things.
i might be from a small town and southern but im not narrow minded or stupided.. And i'm a very opened minded person about most things.
But by being in another country here and looking at things from there out look. It's amazing feeling the way i do.
