American idol part 2
Back at the beginning of this blog I revealed some skeletons in my closet in regards to American Idol. I love singing. I am not a good judge on whether I'm any good but who cares, I love it.
Last week I was walking into the office in school when I saw a sign on the bulletin board with the heading "American Idol....." Being that I love this show, I went to see what the sign was all about. Basically, all the schools in my agency are having an agency wide american idol talent competition. Wow. For a moment I thought of doing it. I wish I could. It is so hard when you are torn between something you really want to do and the standards in your religion. I was just curious if anyone else has an an experience wherein they had to pass up an opportunity for something they really wanted because of religion.

That's a tough one. I am not frum, so I would have done it (if I had a decent voice, which I don't)!
I admire your dedication to your values.

i was offered an amazing job but then actually got rejected when i told them about my committment to shabbat and chagim, their grounds being that i did not fulfil the requirement of being available for overtime. i realised after that i wouldn't have taken it anyway. not a fun experience.

Yeah, your question is tough to answer. So many strange things happen because of our religion and convictions.
Keep sharing.
