Shame
Do you ever read the back-entries to your livejournal and feel ashamed of yourself for what an ass you are/were? I just did.
I don't think I should record my spoiled whining cursing bratness for posteristy much longer. I think all I do is just whine, whine, whine...when in reality I have very little to whine about and should be grateful for all the privileges/experiences I have. I'm not sure if the tone portrayed in my livejournal really represents me either - and if it does I need to do some serious reconsideration of my priorities. It's time to grow up. Although....the ones I just read (to kill time for a study break since I don't have as many friends page updates as before) were from the summer, and I was really bitter about the job stuff. Shit happens I suppose.
Oh...I went to mass on Sunday, and the homily by the Priest was awesome. It talked about how Americans worship money and all these 'false Gods', etc....I would've totally liked it except he was pitching joining Churches again which I don't necessarily think is the answer. Also, I don't necessarily believe in denying the self of any sort of importance and then giving it up to Jesus...but oh well. I guess that is one of the fundamentals of Catholicism though. It was much better than the homily last Sunday where the Priest talked about truth, and said how could someone killing a mother's fetus be considered murder but abortion isn't? I was like whoa, I didn't think they got that explicit during mass with the anti-abortion stuff.
