Lots of changes in every respect. It had me very puzzled and anxious, but now I'm just puzzled but at peace.

I'd say trying to be carefree, yet having a lot of stuff to worry about. Maybe even a certain perception of hopelessness in the present and the future, trying to fight for change in things that are really difficult to change. Loss of faith, hedonism, and the "disconnecting connection" of social...

I'm the kind of person that requires some "me time" every day. In a way, with all that has been going on it has been easier for me to have that, even though I also enjoy some company. I've been getting more calls from my friends and we've been hanging out a little more than before, yet I always...

I read through the document. While it basically calls for the recognizing of movements within the Church (as they are gifts inspired by the Holy Spirit), it also calls those movements to recognize the hierarchy of the Church and the authority of the bishops (which is something that is often...

This is a text I'm eager to read, since I study with the religious but I'm closer to the hierarchical diocesan Church.

I see.

I recently deleted my FB and Instagram, currently using Google +, which not many people in my country use.

I live in a city of around 965,000 people, with 3.3 millions if the metropolitan area is included. I definitely prefer a simpler lifestyle, in a small town. I hate having the feeling that I'm "lost" among so many people, when I prefer smaller settings which have more options of some sort of...

Sorry, I'm failing to understand this. Could you be more clear?

Thank you for this post!

I used to drink a whole liter of either Pepsi or Coke-Cola when I was a teenager. Now I drink a can of... mostly Cherry Coke or Mtn. Dew, at most. Getting close to a gallon doesn't seem very healthy to me. :/

In the Dominican Republic, priestly formation has three main institutions: the major seminary (diocesan) for both philosophical and theological studies, a Jesuit institution (which has only philosophical studies available), and a Dominican institution (which has only theological studies...

The ones used at my parish often have the cross, and sometimes the IHS. We never use plain ones.

If He decides to officially allow it for women, and if it doesn't contradict any official Church teaching, who am I to judge?

I definitely agree with you on this one. There are so many intents of regulating on aspects of the daily life that should be left to the Christian freedom and the judgment of one's own conscience, as long as what is done does not contradict any binding Church teaching. There are quite some...

I normally wear a cross around my neck, but not a rosary. There are people who see it as an "unworthy" use of the rosary, which, in my opinion, isn't so. The truth is that there are a lot of people who use it as an accessory, and that makes another story. If it was my thing, I'd wear it, but I...

I used to go every two weeks. Now I go once a month, but I think it would be very beneficial in my case to make it a more often practice.

Do you have a source for this tradition that identifies the voice of God as one that calls His people to church?

I accomplished most of my goals this year, except for two, but I still haven't took time to think on my resolutions for next year.
