You know what really bugs me? Is when some people don't keep an open mind about things! I mean you have the right to your own opinion! This is like my number one pet peeve. I think some people don't want to have an open mind about some things and it really bugs me when people try to change my beliefs to match there own. I don't think that's right. I mean if I don't try to change your beliefs, then why do you keep trying to change mine? I don't think that's right. Another pet peeve of mine is when people are judgemental. I believe you should accept people for who they are. Take gay people for example. Some people I know judge them just because they are gay! I think that is very, very wrong. But that's my own belief. And even though I disagree with his/her belief, I still accept it. I would never want to judge people for who they are or the way they act. Some people can't help who they are. Some people, in order to feel better, have to put others down. That's how most people my age are. They want others to laugh with them not at them. Some people aren't brave enough to stand up to them and be the one laughed at. It's hard at first. I've learned it doesn't come easy being brave and standing up to some of your best friends and telling them that this is what I believe and this is how I feel. I've learned that they don't always agree with you and they DO have they're own beliefs and I want to accept that but it's hard. However, I try my best to accept it anyway, even if I don't agree with what they are saying. I come from a liberal family who tries to accept people for who they are. We know we can't change it, so we accept instead.
