It feels good to realize something. I've been really busy and restless recently. I don't have time to make another blog even though there are lots of things on my mind. I've been noticing lots of things around me especially about the upcoming election. I don't want to tell something about those still. I just want to unwind for a bit.
There is this application in Facebook wherein i read that
"... that if you feel too busy, you are. Give yourself permission to be un-busy. Give yourself an hour or a day to simply be. Allow yourself the luxury of a small retreat. Allow your spirit time to be restored. Even God took a day of rest."
It made me realize that i need to rest. I'm not a superhero. I get tired too.
'Even God took a day of rest.'
I remembered what our professor in Theology taught us.
I remembered about God rested on the 7th day of creation.
I remembered that Holy Week is approaching.
Today is Ash Wednesday. I don't know it was Ash Wednesday! Someone just texted me and its written there. I'm glad to know it's Ash Wednesday because last year I really wanted to go to the mass but I don't have time and the church was very crowded and I told myself that I needed to go to mass next year. Haha. :)
Anyways, I'm curious if there is a pattern when the Holy Week will be and other feasts so I asked him. He said that in their seminary, they have this calendar of feasts. But what if they don't have that calendar? How will he know? Is there a pattern? I really wanted to know. Then a while ago, Bee asked him if hasn't there been any calling for him to become a priest? I was curious as well why. Or if he still doesn't feel like, why commerce? I mean I know why, but why commerce and not other course? I'm just thinking what would it be like if we don't know him. If something else is happening...
...My siblings and I went to the church for the mass. We were late because we just got home from school. I noticed in the church that there are lots of young people. But there are few things that caught my attention. Some teenagers do not listen to the priest. They prefer texting someone than having their full attention on the mass. Also, their attire is somehow seductive. They wore short-shorts. I cannot fathom the thought that they can manage to wear it in a cold night. It's cold outside and then its OK for them to show some skin. Then i saw this girl who is pregnant. I think she is a teenager, maybe my age or below. I don't know. I just noticed her big tummy - more than 6 months I think. I just wished for her and her baby's good health and a safe delivery someday.
I'm not criticizing them or what. I admit that I wore t-shirt, shorts and slippers but still I couldn't help but noticed them. The church was crowded so I just waited outside. And I'm glad because i feel no stress right now. :) Thank you. :)
PS. I love the Cross-like mark on my forehead. :) And thank you for his time. :) I'm really happy. :)
