So people have been wonderin why I deleted almost all of my itunes. Basically, because it is stealing, which is wrong. I don't really know what made me think about it. I guess it's one of those things where people's attitudes are somethin like... "Yeah, I know it's stealing, and I would hate it if someone did that to me, but I can get this stuff for free, and the artist wouldn't know, and it wouldn't really hurt them, and this stuff is so dang expensive, and I can't spend all my money on music, so I'm just not gonna think about it." The only thing is that the fact that I KNEW it was stealing kept entering my brain, particularly when I was journalling, and especially during worship. Ya know how freakin annoying that is?! Here I am, trying to worship God, and one of my buried sins keeps resurfacing. So during worship I was struggling with it, and this thought entered my mind... Choose: my few thousand stolen songs, or my relationship with Christ . So yeah, that was when I decided to obliterate 90% of my itunes. It kinda sucks, and I had to go buy a few CDs coz I couldn't bear to part with some of the music I stole, but my concience is clear, and there's nothin in the way of my relationship of God.
