Hey all!!! :)
I just realized that i left you guys hanging on my depressed note... im sorry!!!!
So today im finally deciding to tackle something that has been bothering me for a while now, so here we go...
So everyone knows that you can comment on someone's blog without having to put your name on it right? Well it seems as though someone comments on my blog without a name every so often, and they arent always the best comments ever.... for example....

maybe you scare guys away by posting so much about your future husband
There was another comment that this person had written me but i deleted it awhile ago because i didnt want to read it again. Okay so please dont get me wrong, i LOVE when i get comments!!!! Either way, positive, or negative, but at the same time i find myself stumbling over the really negative ones. I love that people read my blog! I really do, i just have to find a way to deal with the comments and critizism i recieve.
Being 16 and different from normal 16 year olds is a definate challenge, but i have seen some rewards, and hoping to see more in the future. I have a hard time dealing with things that society portrays as okay, which is basically the opposite of what the church teaches. People think im wierd, strange, crazy, dumb, and ignorant when it comes to many things, which is tough for me to deal with. I know that people dont agree with who i am and what i do because its not the "normal" or "accepted" thing to do in today's world.
Okay so here are some examples, i am hoping this gives you a picture of where i stand on topics.
Society Says: "Pre-marital sex, and multiple sexual relationships is totally okay."--- Ashley Says: "No. My body is a temple of the Holy Spirit, given to me by my Lord and Savior. I respect myself as well as my future husband to hold on to and keep my purity until marriage. God made sex for the purpose of pro-creation, not to just be thrown around."
Society Says: "All teenagers go out, get drunk and do drugs, its just part of being a teenager."---- Ashley says: "First of all i am under 21 so im not drinking because its illegal, along with doing drugs. I respect my body and myself not to do such harmful things to it."
Society Says: "Girls need to flaunt their body to get boys" --- Ashley says: "No way! Modesty is the way to go! You dont need a boy oogling over your body, because if thats all he sees, thats all he is going to want. Respect yourself and dress modestly!"
Society Says: "All teenagers grind at dances, weither its clubs or high school dances." --- Ashley says: "No way again! I dont grind because i dont need to use my body to attract a boy. Doing that only provokes temptation, even if you are not having any type of sexual relations, what do you think is going through your head or the person you are grinding on's head? Lust is a sin as well"
Society Says: "All teenagers rebel, thats just a part of growing up."--- Ashley says: "I am not going to sit here and say i am the worlds best daughter because i am definately NOT! But here is the thing, even though my parents and i do argue on occasion, i still respect them and work hard to not disobey them."
Hoping that gives you a sense of who i am to an extent??? :)
So as you can see... Im Different. Thats all there is to it, but ya know... I'm ME! :) So if i can ask please pray for me to overcome the difficulty with annonomyus comments that bother me. :) Thank you all who have commented so wonderfully! I truly appreciate it! Please continue! :)
God Bless,
Ashley
******By the way.... thank you to those who did comment annonomyusly but were so very encouraging and uplifiting! God Bless you!*****

Wow, I didn't know you had so many anonymous comments Ash >: Pay them no mind, there are always internet people who think they are so cool just because they are safe behind a moniter.
Maybe you should give some thought about your posts though...(Then again, your title says High School Catholic so I guess it speaks for itself anyways lol)
I'm not meaning to be mean, but religion talk in every post does get people riled up. Then again it's YOUR blog so you post whatever you want! :)
"All teenagers rebel, that's just a part of growing up. All teenagers grind at dances, whether it's clubs or high school dances, and all teenagers go out, get drunk and do drugs. It's just part of being a teenager." -- Society, as told by Ashley.
"Do your friends do any of those things? Are they not included when you refer to everybody? It's not fair to assume that everyone is doing those sorts of things, because they're not. There are other people who worry about these things as well, and it's good to remember that every once in a while. You're not alone as you claim you are, so don't look so gloomy :)" --A fellow, anonymous person who doesn't do any of the things listed above.
Ashley i follow your blog and I think it's great that you are unique! However, I think that while you may be unique, it is not the worst thing to try to relate to other teens, and have more than one focus. I agree that God is great, but there are so many ways to see him. Live with an open mind!
