Coming back to life
Wow! I just got out of Sunday Mass.
I remember it now!
During the Gloria I felt the slow rising inside myself and let myself raise my hands once again... I have not raised my hands during the Gloria in over 2 years and now I know, almost, who I am again...
you see...
I am not just my body...
I am my body-soul union... and to raise one's hands to God is to unite that spiritual reality of prayer ( defined by the cathechism as a raising of the heart and mind to God) and NOW-> to JOIN that reality with ones BODY... and raise also my hands... reflecting the groanings of the soul... and all elements of personhood have become more it seems.

OOOOoopsie
did i just change my template again?
thanks for your criticism anon person!!!!!!!!!!
Ordinary Girl,
You are welcome. I think that often people need to make mistakes to learn. I hope your mistakes are not too big though. Do not forget how important faith is and that doubt is the loss of faith.
do u mind if i ask if i know you anon. lol i think i know who you are
oh- i must change my template to suit you then????--->> i like it.
If you want to guess I could tell you if you are right... but please guess in such a way so as to preserve my anonymity... if this presents a problem I can try to obtain some other way of allowing you to ascertain who I am, I suppose.
hmmmmmmmm... are you a christendom friend/acquantence?
Ordinary Girl,
Good job on preserving anonymity... but you don't know who this is because no.
i diden't think u were from christendom, but i wanted to make sure- i was using process of elimination!!!!! lol i thought you were/are someone i know OTHER then a christendom friend, lol
Oh ok... well... I was wrong then.
are you a lawyer by chance?
