Your honesty gives me hope for the world Jenny. I am a trad Catholic with a wrap sheet of sins I would rather not share. However, I keep trying. I mentally pray often and everywhere through the day, but at night when I reach for my rosary and slide my fingers from bead to bead I feel her peaceful reassurance that good will prevail.

Our Lady and the Rosary prayer are there for everyone, not just we Catholic sinners. It is heartening to know that you chose to give thought to the Holy Mother. I pray that you continue to explore your spiritual path. Great blessings to you and all women who are struggling with the contemporary peer pressure to be the “culture’s version” of a woman. She who can fine tune her soul ( with aid from Mother Mary) will find peace in her own choices. It is truly liberating.

I used to think the Good/Evil paradigm was patently ridiculous.

Now I think that I'm seeing the face/s of evil sooo much, that the converse must be true. Good is real. Good is needed.

The scaffolding the Church provided - believer, or not - is no longer in situ. Worrying times.
