AP Language Woes
I swear, formal academic writing kills me. It really does. And you can just tell because I’m totally sounding like a Holden Caulfield right now.
How phony.
I could probably write 10 pages on this topic if I could present it as if it were a blog post instead. But such is life.
So here I am struggling to finish my AP Language term paper about family breakdowns. With only 3 pages down so...

“The bible is like a buffet, you can just pick and choose what you want.”
– Things Jesus Never Said (via thingsjesussneversaid)
Yes, because removing 7 books from the bible and creating multiple new translations is not ‘picking and choosing’.

Boom. Roasted.

I guess you could say that I’m more inclined to spend the night with the Lover of my soul at Adoration.
Not that I’m saying that going to dances is wrong, but they’ve just never really been my thing.
Especially when nowadays they’re characterized by girls trying to see how much they can get away with when they’re picking out what...

Brief summary of my weekend.
So here’s the ratio of things I wanted to achieve this weekend to things I actually achieved:
655437865364579: 1.
Approximately.
Nevertheless, I have much to be grateful for!
Despite this nagging loneliness and spiritual dryness, I still know that I long to be faithful to Him who has always been faithful to me.
Besides, I’ll probably be painfully joyfully laughing about this...

Dryness
journeytotruth:
”Our Faith tells us that God is always Present to us and by grace He is in our souls. Dryness then forces us to live by what Faith teaches rather than what our feelings make us desire. Unless God bestows upon us the searing power of dryness we shall forever be swayed by emotional feelings designed to prod us on but never capable of changing us.” ~Mother Angelica

A Quick Letter to My Followers (:
In many ways, I’ve seen my follower count as nothing more than a number.
Which is good, you know, since humility is a big thing for Catholics. So I hear.
But as I look back on the past 10 months of content on my Tumblr and how much I’ve grown since then, I can’t help but feel incredibly humbled by how many of you guys have chosen to take this journey with me.
It’s...

How do I know if I have a religious vocation?
doubtingansley:
shortbreadsh:
What may start as an unsettling idea becomes a reoccurring thought. The person with a religious vocation increasingly finds that there is a restlessness of spirit that only the things of God seem to fill. Marriage may be attractive, but there is the question of whether or not God has something more in mind. A few questions to consider include:
Are you happy, yet...
