To be Greek or Not to be Greek

Hello World!!!

It has been a minute(work is killing me!!!!!) this blog i have been contemplating on writing,simply because I don't want to offend. I was raised by a fine man of Kappa Alpha Psi (1911,you know whats up). I know a lot about the Greek life. My family has a member of every organization in it. I have always been taught the finer points of being Greek and it's importance. I do not want it to seem like I am a no it all because I know since I have not crossed anything there is A LOT I don't know. Well anyway in undergrad I did try to cross something. Unfortunately a very sad incident happened and halted all those plans. So I graduated in 04 still not Greek.

Many of my family members and friends I look up to in such a positive manner are Greek. I see what it has done for them and I the positive impact they make in the community. ( Shout out to 1908 and 1913). Well on to the present, I still want to be Greek even though i am on the other side of 24 now(man i feel old). But now my decision seems to be swaying in a different direction then what it was in undergrad. Some of my friends feel I am just trying to be like them and some of my family thinks I am doing it for all the wrong reasons. It's like if you say you want to be one thing for a period of time. If you change your mind it is a bad thing or you are not being "real". People can change their minds about a lot of things in life. Why can't they change which organization they would like to be a part of?

Both organizations I have looked at in their own ways show that they are doing the positive things....the things that they stand for. I have just grown over them years and one does not seem to be the fit for me anymore. I don't know if I will ever get a chance to do the grad chapter thing. Maybe I will never be Greek. But I wish I could have the free will to make the decision and not be so judge for it. But maybe that is something that because I am not Greek I don't understand...........
