The more you know, the more you know you don't know.

This is my official first blog, without any outside assistance from my computer knowledgeable big brother.
Well, I don't know what to write so I will just talk about some issues that are gnawing at me right now. See, I just read the book The Kite Runner, and I have realized I live in the Utah bubble still. I thought I new enough about the world and different religions, but I so do not. I am fascinated with the people of Afghanistan. Their religion and beliefs are so surreal to me the more I read about them the more I want to know.
Are we fighting over there a war which will never end. There are many good people I believe that are worth fighting for, but Satan is running a circus over there that looks like will never end. What are the Muslim people fighting about land, money, religion, heritage they seem to be prejudice because of a number of things they are Shi'te or Sunni they are Hazara or the other one ( I can't remember now). Is that not what makes our nation so great we have a stew of all delicious flavors.
I am now reading A thousand Splendid Suns, I am grateful that I can marry someone because I love them. I have the ability to live my dreams and make my own choices. We are so blessed to live when and where we do.
I will be surfing the net learning more about the world...until next time.

Peace
