So, how was your holy week? I'd like to believe you had a good time.
I spent the holidays at home. I was actually surprised my mother didn't insist on doing the Visita Iglesia last Thursday. I used to find it a bit scary to have Stations of the Cross at home, but I really needed the time to rest and I think my mom understood that so we just prayed at home. It still feels weird and I feel incomplete without going about the tradition but it was fine.
I spent four straight days at home and Last Saturday, I started having fever. It got worse last Sunday, and it caused me to call in sick at work.
I'm used to going to different places on Holy Week. I think this is the first time we didn't go anywhere at all. I don't know why, but I feel very, very relaxed and grateful. Although I feel a little envious whenever I see beach posts, then again, with the heat of the sun, even if the water's cold, I don't think I'd want myself to go through that.
For the past few years, I've been very proud of my faith. The past months, probably because of what I went through, I think I'm having troubles. It's not that I lost faith, it's just that I don't get to pray as often as I did. I'm very disappointed. Although I liked the idea of staying home during the holidays, doing the Visita Iglesia and visiting several churches could maybe help me regain the faith I once had. I really need that quiet time in the House of God. I want to be able to just sit there, stare at Him, and feel Him. Maybe I'll do that in the near future. I really need peace.
