I'm a Catholic too. I'm serving in a youth ministry. Sometimes, I too find catholics 'boring' and 'melancholic'. Could be caused by the 'if-you-sin-you'll-be-thrown-in-hell' teachings of the 'older generations'. Therefore, it's safe to be and look 'pious'. However, in my experience (eversince i've started spending much time in church), it's very alive and vibrant. it takes a deeper look, I guess:) Anyway, great blog!Like that you're being REAL. Ow, about the 14 stations, personally, I find it a great, deeper, quiet joy to see the truth and accept the truth of how i am saved. The joy of ressurection is celebrated at the knowledge of those 'uncomfortable' sufferings. So today, Christians should be 'happy' and joyful because we're freed from the 'pain' of all those stations. p/s: I'm surrounded by energetic, (sometimes annoyingly)happy Catholics all the time, so I guess that's quite a positive thing. gabbys last blog post..<a href="http://gabbybosis.blogspot.com/2008/08/come-walk-on-water.html" rel="nofollow">Come Walk on Water</a> Interesting post.
