  • A reprieve

    Well! That was an exciting entry! I think that last post received more comments than anything in the past year or so. Unless some other controversy is stirred up, or, if anyone wants to continue discussing religious life, I think I will again let people ask questions about whatever they want to hear my ideas on. So, ask away!

  • If you had to write a novel in a month, what would you write it on? 

    31,714 and counting.  I’m behind; I need to reach 35,007 today, eek!

  • Familial resistance, if any, to your vocation: strength and duration of the resistance? Are you still in communication with said relative(s)? Resolution?

    If you could go anywhere in the world for a month except places where you have already traveled or lived, where would that be?

    If you could create your own religious order (the Jesuits can’t possibly suit you perfectly) what would it be like? What would it’s mission be? It’s habit/dress code? Whom would you accept? &etc.

    If you could meet anyone historical or fiction (other than the classic responses of Christ, God, Mary, Joseph, various saints and popes, Mozart and other renowned composers and artists) who would it be and why? Please don’t be cliche’.

    hmm, I’d ask more but I’m really procrastinating on my paper …

  • Regarding your comment on yesterday’s post, I’m not close enough to my parish priest to talk about this.  Nor am I about to ask for Communion at home; that is a little extreme and would only result in creating further troubles for myself.  Almost every week I get a talk from my dad detailing how I need to “knock” off the Christianity.  He says that the cult was one direction, and I am not to let the pendelum swing too far in the other direction, which he sees as Christianity.  For our family, I am the only person who wants a relationship with God, wants to attend Mass, and actively seeks all of this out. My seeking God out is seen as too much by my family.  I’m supposed to be “complacent” which is a term I would use, they’d call it “normal.”  No, my family is not aware of my vocation discernment, and for now I desperately prefer it that way.
