An Update

Sometimes I think I might be losing my mind. This Sunday was one of those times.

After Mass everyone gathered for a potluck. As we stood in line to get our food I glanced up and noticed a young man ahead of us. He immediately caught my eye because he appeared to be wearing super thick black eyeliner. How odd, I thought to myself. A strange, uncomfortable sensation settled inside me but I didn't think much of it. I thought I was just getting sick from not eating properly or something.

We took our seat and I glanced down the table to see the same young man from earlier... only now his eyes weren't lined with black.

I stared and stared and stared because it just felt like something was seriously wrong.

I don't know, I passed by him a little later and that sensation of wrongness intensified. Boy was I relieved when it was time to leave the building!

So really, what the heck is up with that? Am I going crazy? Was I just imagining things (although that 'eyeliner' was pretty intense and I have a hard time thinking what trick of the eye could have caused that effect)? I imagine the sensation of wrongness could just be a reaction to the startling visual differences between first glance and second?

I just don't know, but I do know I'll be saying a little prayer for that one.

He made me think of my cousin... who used to be a Satanist. I remember the last time we met and he inspired the same reaction in me (a general sense that something is wrong).

I am finally meeting with the Father to validate my baptism. He said as soon as my Baptism is validated I can go to confession anytime... I'm really excited about that!
