There needs to be more criticism of the Democratic Party

sweetandlovelygirl7:

otaku-sex-beast:

They’re just as bad and as corrupt as much of the Republican Party. I am so sick of this “Good Guy” role that they encourage people to believe that they play. 

I cringe when I see this whole, “Republicans = Bad” mentality going on.  

both political parties suck equally. can we just start a Catholic party?

^ Cuz a Catholic party don’t stop.

On St. Monica, Counsel, and True Love

image

I think that one of the worst feelings you could ever have as a teenager has to do with knowing you made your parents cry.

And it is with great awkwardness that I say that hopefully, some of you can relate to this. Otherwise, I must be sounding like a pretty terrible son already.

Nevertheless, at least I can say that some of the saints have been there and done that, especially when you consider St. Augustine, because for 17 years, he made his mother, St. Monica, cry.

She cried because she desperately wanted her son, who was living an immoral life, to know and love the one true God.

In the end, it was through St. Monica’s persistent tears and prayers to God, that her prayers were answered. St. Augustine converted from his old, sinful ways, and received the gift of counsel – which helped him to not only know the difference between right and wrong, but to have the inclination to choose the right – in order to avoid sin and seek salvation.

On St. Bartholomew and Knowledge

image

Okay, so let’s be real.

St. Bartholomew isn’t exactly the most popular Apostle in town. He’s barely mentioned in the Gospels, and St. John insists on calling him Nathanael.. But we do know that he had the guts to diss Jesus’ neighborhood and still prove to be incapable of duplicity.. At least he’s got that much going for him.

Nevertheless, I always laugh when I think about saints like St. Bartholomew – saints who aren’t exactly well known, and yet my laugh is one of hope.

Because there is a saying that goes, “To the world, you are one person but to one person, you are the world.”

And this is exactly the hope that fills my heart when I hear the stories of St. Bartholomew, St. Dymphna, St. Chillen, St. Alphege the Bald, St. Kenny, St. Guy, St. Dora, or my personal favorite: St. Fabius Claudius Gordianus Fulgentius… Awesome confirmation saint names to take up, btw.

Because no matter how small, unimportant, insignificant the world might try to make us feel…

God will forever be the person in our lives who will see each and every one of us, regardless of our failures and shortcomings as His children, and say, “To me, child. You are the world. And I would rather die for You than risk spending an eternity of happiness without You.”

And let this be the knowledge we long to grasp in our lives… Knowledge that transcends the pages of our math, history and science books. Knowledge to perfect our faith in the presence of God who’s madly in love with me, with you, and the person right next to you. Knowledge to understand that we are here on this earth for a reason – and even if the world may never realize it, God does. And he hopes we do too.

In Which Twi-Hards Need to Twi Harder

Don’t worry. This is not going to be a long reflection (I hope). This is not going to be a post trashing Robert Pattinson’s and Kristen Stewart’s broken relationship. This is, in no way, meant to offend any Twi-Hards (well, at least, intentionally).

But I feel strangely compelled to write a post reflecting on a video I came across on YouTube that shows a fan expressing her rather strong feelings about the whole Rob & Kristen drama (be warned - there’s a bit of strong language in the video).

And here’s what the girl had to tell Kristen:

If you really loved him (Rob) that much, you wouldn’t have done it. If you cared about him that much, you wouldn’t have done it.

Why, but of course. I agree wholeheartedly.

And if you wanted people to back off and not be involved, then you wouldn’t have posted that statement - but you see, the thing is..

Okay, wait, hold up, don’t tell me that you’re implying that -

YOU WERE STUPID ENOUGH TO GET PHOTOGRAPHED DOING IT. DON’T BE SO STUPID.

image

..You implied it.

You implied that when evaluating mankind’s stupidity with 99.9% of the sins they commit, you have to first consider whether or not they made a conscious decision to run away from the consequences of that sin by making sure it’s not exposed - at all costs.

Oh wait. That kinda reminds me of this story I once read..

image

Now I’m no Bible expert, but I’m pretty sure that God didn’t banish Adam and Eve from the Garden of Eden because they failed to realize that He was omniscient when they were trying to hide away from Him.

To which I have to say:

If society today is convinced that the gravity and our error in committing sins against God and against our neighbor is solely dependent on whether or not we get caught, then seriously..

image

And to that Twi-Hard who was pretty upset about Rob and Kristen’s break-up for, what I think were the wrong reasons:

If you still can’t understand my point by now, you might want to twi a little bit harder.

Dear Extrovert,

within—without:

Hi! Remember me? I’m the Introvert you met at that party last week. Oh. You don’t remember? That’s okay. I’m used to it. I know I’m not a memorable person.

Maybe you thought I was antisocial? But really, I’m not. At least, not in the Christian-Bale-American-Psycho sort of way. Admittedly, I’m terrified of big crowds, but plop me in my natural environment of 1-3 other close friends and hear me (ROAR) be completely sociable.

Maybe you thought I was dumb? I know, I looked a bit awkward as I stood at the edge of that circle of people, not quite in the conversation, but just… there. But really, I’m listening to everything being said and thoughts are running through my mind. I just never feel compelled to interrupt the loud, boisterous flow of words to interject my own calm observations. So I keep them to myself.

Maybe you thought I was boring? When you asked me how I was doing, I was fine, thanks. When you tried to strike up a conversation about the latest episode of Glee or this one Indie band that you’re sooooo into, I could only nod and smile. I’m sorry we don’t watch the same shows, listen to your type of music, or like to gossip about this and that and him or her. But talk about the books I worship or start a debate on property rights or economic theory and I will rouse up and start brimming with opinions and energy. I love exchanging ideas and intimate personal connections, but shrivel up at the prospect of shallow chitchat and meaningless drivel.

Maybe you thought that I just didn’t care about you? I know I can seem aloof sometimes. My smile is more wan and tentative than warm and inviting. But I do care — indeed, I care way too much — about people, especially those that I perceive to care about me. Embrace me as a friend, welcome me into your world and you’ll find that I am passionately loyal, caring, and would rather die than let you down. Yet, I am too private and painfully shy to be the first to extend the olive branch of trust.

And so, dear Extrovert, next time you see me in a crowd, stop and remember that behind that timid insecure exterior is a wonderful and loving person. Next time, as you flutter around the party like the gregarious butterfly that you are, don’t forget to sit down next to me and braid a genuine connection. I hope you’ll discover that I’m worth it too.

Sincerely,

An Introvert
