I Don't Know: When There is No Answer

So, right now it's 1:48 in the morning, and I can't sleep. Why can't I sleep? I DON'T KNOW!!!! I've been thinking thoughts about various things, and those thoughts about things have led to other thoughts about other things, which led me to asking myself the question that is, in my opinion, one of the most frequently asked questions EVER: What is the meaning of life? And there are people who will say this, that and the other thing about what life is about, but the thing is, none of their ideas agree with one another. So, until all of the answers given by all of the people answering the question are all mostly similar, I'm just gonna have to go with "I don't know."
You know, sometimes I wonder if people are scared of those words: "I don't know." It seems that we almost always are required to have an answer to something, when, in fact, not knowing is sometimes a good thing! As it happens, we actually don't know a lot of things about a lot of things. For example:
Why is an Italian plumber named Mario the most recognized fictional character in the world?
I DON'T KNOW!!!
Why does the Earth spin counter-clockwise instead of clockwise?
I DON'T KNOW!!!
Why in the name of Merlin's beard is Justin Bieber still popular???
GOOD GANDHI, I HAVE NO CLUE!!!!
To quote Hank Green, "Good God, it is liberating, I am a towering mountain of ignorance, I DON'T KNOW!!!!"
Why are we so scared of not knowing? To be honest, we think we know a lot, our brains are amazing that way. But we really don't know much compared to the knowledge that's waiting for us out in the universe! Even the smartest people in the universe, people who have be studying what they study for years and years and years and years aren't afraid to say that they don't know something!
See, we've always been taught that things have a reason, so we observe the world and all of its goings-on, and, then we define the things that happen as the reasons those things happened in the first place. For example, Lord of the Rings is popular because it was about wizards and magic and it was very well written all that good stuff. But then you look at that reasoning, and then realize that you just stated that LOTR is popular because it's LOTR. Then other books about magic and wizards that are well written (like The Alchemist by Michael Scott), and then we say, "Well it's just not LOTR." Yeah, so The Alchemist doesn't have the same attributes as LOTR, so it's not as popular as LOTR. Yep, we're geniuses.
Now, it's a really good thing that people want to know everything! We're human, we're curious about such things! But, a lot of the time, we end up confusing opinion with facts. Let's look at Israel and Palestine, for example. Everyone claims to know the solution to the problem and how to stop the fighting, but all of their solutions are different. You see, people base those solutions on their values and their morals, which is great, it really is. But the thing is, morality and values are subjective.
If I'm confusing you, let me summarize: Nobody's opinions are correct. Ever. This is why it's virtually impossible to argue certain topics with certain people, because they guard their opinions and defend those opinions as if they were their very lives!
If you're reading this and you have no freaking clue what I'm talking about, that's okay, neither do I. It's now 2:30 AM, and I am now ultimately faced with the fact that I constantly have to remind myself of: I don't know, I don't know, I don't know.
And if you're still confused, I got the inspiration for this post from this guy, Hank Green, and his video, "Towering Mountains of Ignorance." Here's the link if you're interested. I'm going to bed. 'Night.

New Blog Title!

Okay, so if you noticed, my blog has been changed from My Blog(how creative) to Voices in the Wilderness. Why  did I choose that as my title? Because I got those word from this song. Listen carefully:

I love this song because it makes me want to spread his word even more and more, until the whole world hears!

School and Bullying

 School is rough.

Annoying teachers,

loads of homework,

late assignments,

horrible lunches,

The list goes on forever. But the worst part, the part I personally struggle with the most, is bullying.  They call you names, they give you funny looks, they hit you, trip you, put mean notes in your locker, anything! It happens a lot. And it happens everywhere. Even in Christian schools.

I go to a Christian school, and I am bullied every single day, by the same people (whose names shall go unsaid), and they do the same things every day. This happens in Christian schools. I've tried standing up for myself, and I've tried ignoring it. I've tried this ever since I was in second grade. But it doesn't seem to work. Whenever I try to stand up for myself, I get laughed at and the bullying continues, and if I try to ignore it, the bullying still continues. Why can't all of this just stop? I never understood why God makes these things happen to me. I don't understand why people have to suffer!
  The other day I read something that answered my question. I read that God makes these things happen because he wants us to depend on him. He wants us to pray and put our trust in him, and then he will guide us through the trouble. This doesn't mean that when something bad happens, such as your grandmother gets brain cancer, we quick pray to God and after the bad thing goes away, we continue on with our normal lives and not pray to him. This means that we should put our trust in him at all times. Even in something simple, like the bus ride to school, or a bike ride to a friends house. Keep your trust in the LORD all the time, and he will guide you through the storm.
