These days I rarely utilize my computer during evening hours.
I’ve grown tired of all the hype and fear instilled within thanks to social media.
The news app on my cell phone constantly dings with near 100 percent negative
articles.
Windows 10 updated and ‘Hello’ a new challenge with more decision-making
ahead.
This morn I downloaded a pic of a beautiful crocheted granny square only
to discover hours later I’m unable to proceed as ‘I wish’.
It’s evident I’m in control of zilch at this point until I piece together yet
another puzzle.
I’ve come to the conclusion life known ‘n created now phase non-existence.
I don’t understand!!
Little makes sense anymore.
I ponder thoughts:
Better to safeguard wholesome feelings still within ‘heart’
Settle ‘good try’ leave incomplete unfulfilled dream ‘depart’
Seek new direction versus continue move forward ‘restart’
Mirror reflections tenure life ne’er consider self be ‘quitter’
Troublesome times worldwide persona creation ’embitter’
Conclusion – pen words persevere forward personal ‘transmitter’
As a reader you may wonder how the contents of this post relate to the title.
The story began with an innocent young girl’s desire to join and participate
in Catechism class.
At registration she was handed a form which required her parents’ permission.
Returning home with much anticipation for the signature to learn Catholicism
she found herself face-to-face with negativity void of explanation.
Answer: ‘NO!’
Although she wasn’t allowed to attend weekly CCD class, she proceeded each
week to dress in her Sunday best and attend Mass.
Who knew??
One day many years later, married with children of her own, she’d be teaching
religion from her home to young students.
That girl was ‘ME’.
Although life’s circumstances changed in recent years (not for the better), I’ll
continue to maintain my beliefs until I no longer exist here on Earth and can
rest in God’s arms.
