sunday mass
i was too tired to argue with my lola. so i went to mass with her. i wore black, surprisingly she didn’t comment on it. I ended up reading from the Book of Wisdom (First reading today) and it was about condemning the one, I read it once before Mass started just to get a feel of the mood. It was a rather somber piece but I can’t really tell, it has yet to sink in and I doubt it would sink in unless I get to read a third time. The priest talked about Jung’s theory- about the superior/senior and the eternal child. I could relate, in one of these few instances where I feel like I connect to something "catholic", I felt my insides (take note, not my innards which have been cooking these past few… ) glow. he advised that we be child-like, we have become "senior" - success oriented. He recommended humor. He also talked about a "Lord anecdote" about the explanation of life, or perhaps lifespan… there was a dog, a cow and a monkey then man… nice choices for a life lesson story, eh?
anyway, it was nice. I can learn to like Sunday’s. Now, if only I could do that to the rest of the week…
