I'M FEELING = AMBIVALENT & CONTEMPLATIVE
WHY = Mimic explaining the Eucharistic in Scripture to XANDER.
He asked WHY we aren't going to Mass daily then?? If we have LEGIT THEOPHAGY access.
I said it's because it's the most heavy, important, life changing thing you can ever do-- and so every last scrap of sin in me is declaring all-out war against that effort.
But he made me think. And I realized how badly I DO want to go.
Make the effort. Your life depends on it.
