Tonight I brought my son to church. No particular reason..just because.
Just because I had a previously bad week? or I have been thinking about going back for a long time? or parental guilt? Not sure, however I am glad I did.
It is a Roman catholic church and I have always been annoyed by the catholic politics and heirarchy. Actually to the point where I quit going, much to the dismay of my parents.
What I realized is, I was using that as an excuse to not go.
I don't think any religion is perfect and since I am not committed enough to convert to Buddism I believe I must approach attending church from a different perspective.
Go with an open mind, use the time to reflect, if you don't like the sermons and stories look for the message beneath all the clutter.
This is a short blog. Going back to church was on my list of things to do. The experience was not as bad or as boring as I expected it to be, so I will go again, I think I am actually looking forward to it...but don't tell my parents!
