There are a so many phrases that strike fear in the hearts of men and women everywhere. "You're fired," "We find the defendent guilty," or "No" are a few that come to mind. One phrase that scares me but I haven't heard it yet is "I'm pregnant." That phrase doesn't scare me but what follows does. Don't get me wrong; I do want kids, eventually. I don't think I'm ready for any right now though. But what would I do if I heard tomorrow? I wouldn't have no choice but to accept it and step up. Would I try to push the girl towards an abortion? I don't think that I would. I don't think that I could. I'm pro-choice. But I don't agree with using the technology just to change a mistake in judgement. There are of course extreme circumstances where I think abortions could be put into play like rape. Even then I don't think I could ever say to somebody that they should have an abortion. It is just such a final statement. And regardless of how some may say it, a fetus is a life. They are the future. I'll never ask my parents this, but what if they had an abortion with me? Then the three people who read my blog wouldn't be able to. I wouldn't exist. Life is hard but it is also a blessing. Everyday we wake up we have the chance to make a difference somewhere. I wake everyday with almost the same routine so I take it for granted sometimes, but it only takes one wake up call. Life is what you make it.
