Friends

In the last couple of months I've had quite the influx of Christian people/friends in my life. As an atheist, you'd think that we wouldn't have that much in common. But the ones I've become friends with I find are absolutely amazing people.

I was talking about it with a work colleague/friend at morning tea today. I've found that I am really attracted to them (not in a romantic sense) and it's because they are happy, positive, caring people. We've found common ground in that we are both trying to improve ourselves, them through their faith, and wish to become better people/Christians, me through my diet/lifestyle/opening up to people. And also some of them were doing bootcamp with me, so we bonded through exercise, encouraging each other to do better.

So, although I don't think I'll ever be a Christian again in my life (I'm guessing not believing in God is always going to be a sticking point lol), I am lucky to have these people in my life, and I embrace the positive that comes from it.
