Some days are deader than others

Hi, maybe it's a Friday thing or maybe it's the fact that I'm at home today and didn't go out anywhere but sometimes things feel so dead, as in "not enough people, not enough activity." Everyone gets days like this but today is one of those days and I hope it passes, for the better.

Thank you. This feeling normally happens on holidays and some Sundays, but it can happen outside of that too.
Have you thought about volunteering through the Church? It might help with those sort of days and you can meet people. :)

I used to feel that way since basically everyone I hung out with has passed away. But, I started going out for coffee and met some nice people to spend a few hours a day with.

I'm still deciding which parish to focus on (I know, it's pathetic how long I've been like this). I'm quite certain it would help me focus on something.

I have volunteered through the Church. You develop a lot of friendships through those things. :)

I agree, I'm just trying to figure out between two parishes, which one I should focus on more. Probably the one I'm a member at, but there are reasons why I'm losing incentive to be a member there. I think I'm going to have to talk about it with the most local priest - even if he's biased in favor of his parish. The time has come to stop vacillating and get to the point, because I'm suffering too much with this "hopping." I was suffering before, but it's doubly worse now.
