Yeah thats right. This liberal kook, semi-pacifist, anti-iraq war dude is considering joining the military.
I suppose this is because I don't want to be a hypocrite. I'm still against the Iraq war but I feel that how can I possibly be against a war but then I've never been in the military before.
I know its kinda hard to understand. I've always wanted to be a writer. In fact, my dream is to become a published author when I get out of school. Joining something that could endanger me could threaten my dream but I dunno. I just feel as if I need to have some kind of experience where my life is in danger.
I'm still not sure. I mean I know its a long way off but its been bugging me recently. I mean I don't want to die and I certainly don't want to die for something I don't believe in but I still feel for some reason that I need this experience.
I just don't really want to be a hypocrite. How can I possibly live in this country but never bother to lift a figner when others are endangered? Anyone have any advice for me?
