I Liked It….

“I heard the song and I liked it”

So I paid my 99 cents and now I have it on my Itunes. I’m talking about the song “I kissed a girl” by Katy Perry.

But this is not about the song, or the apparently controversial lyrics.

This is about how I found the song.

A few days ago on MSN it was reported that a pastor in Ohio had found such offense with the lyrics “I kissed a girl and I liked it” that he was compelled to send a message out to his little corner of the world (yet it caught on nationwide!) on the sign outside of his church. So he wrote “I kissed a girl and I liked it…..and then I went to Hell!”

Ohhhh…..kay.

I had not heard the song before. They don’t play it on the country music radio station that I listen to the most. My kids are not quite to the age yet where they are really into music or new music so consequently I had never had the opportunity before to hear Katy Perry’s song.

But when someone….anyone….of the human persuasion starts condemning another to Hell or whatever for not conforming to what “they” believe….my curiosity peaks.

So I found the song. I listened to the song.

I heard the song and I liked it.

The point is that the pastor by spewing out his hate-filled vitriol, actually succeeded at bringing more attention to the song. And yes, it is possible that he had some people who agreed with him. But I’m not one of them.

Yes, he got my attention. The song got my attention. But it was not in the way he intended. Instead of convincing the people who don’t agree with him, he brought more energy and attention to the song.

We live in a all-inclusive Universe. When you give attention to the things that you do not want you succeed in bringing more light to those things.

Just something to consider.

(Especially in the USA in the next 54 days before the elections. Don’t fight against the candidates that you do not want but only focus upon the candidates that you do want.)

“You can’t take sides against anything. If you would just be one who is for things,
you would live happily ever after.
If you could just leave the “against” part out.”
