Ever since school started I haven’t found the time to go to church. I am on the go, nonstop! It’s crazy how much gas I waste every week, two tanks to be exact.. :’( BLAH! Sunday is my “FREE” day, the only day where I don’t work or have school. It’s no wonder why I don’t go to church-it’s my only day to catch up on sleep and just relaxxxxxxx.

BUT.

I went to mass today. My beloved grandma just passed away and I thought it’d be appropriate to go and pray for her to rest in peace. It was nice, for lack of a better word. Actually, that’s pretty fitting-NICE. It was really really really really nice. A lot of people don’t understand how I got to be so religious all of a sudden and, to be honest, I don’t understand it myself. However, I felt a sense of that purpose today. Vi’s always telling to me to meditate or practice yoga so I can channel my anger, frustration, and annoyance (haha). Yoga does not work for me.. I think it’s stupid; and all those upward, downward dog poses make me feel ridiculous. I digress, church is my form of meditation!! I feel so liberated just being in church, being in the grace of God. I feel so content :)! I don’t see God as an all powerful being that is in control of my fate. He’s not that jealous God that gets angry when you worship another either. He’s not a figment of my imagination. And God is NOT the epitome of blind faith. He’s just my friend, and a really good one at that. Personally, I think attending mass is similar to hanging out with a best friend- someone that will motivate you to become a better person, inside and out.

PLEASE do not tell me that religion is the worst thing to have ever existed in this world. I will bite your ignorant head off. Religion does not cause wars, stupid people do. Also, just to be clear, I do not believe and follow everything in the bible, or even 80% of it. Man is flawed, and when he interpreted the messages of God I’m pretty sure there were a lot of mistakes. .. A LOOOOOOT. haha.

PEACE BE WITH YOU :)

PS I love you, grandma x 2.
