If that is what you mean, then I have been awake all my life.

My teachers hated me growing up, not because I was a rebel or stupid or anything, but because I was very inquisitive and didn't accept everything I read or was taught. Teachers don't like it when you can argue them down on something they think they know and I was good at that. Things have never made sense to me really...


In fact, anytime I found myself following the pact, I got ****** because of it. In may of this year, I finally let my guard down again and got pressured into "buying a home" and borrowed $200k to do it. Now the house will probably be worth half that in a few years if all we fear comes to pass.


Still, I find myself questioning the basis for a lot of what people here believe. I don't trust or agree with our government or most of the "teachings" we have been taught, but I certainly do not believe all the counter beliefs that people think either.
