"God has never said you have to perform great deeds for your country and humanity to have lived well Where would that leave all the sick people in the world? Look at me, for instance, needing assistance all the time. You wouldn't say that we sick and bedridden of the world are 'useful'! But usefulness is not the point. Our lives are of great worth if we accept with good grace the situation Providence places us in and go on living lovingly....Our talents and handicaps may differ greatly, but we are all equal in this: each of us is born to manifest God's glory; to know, love and serve him here below and share in his eternal life after death...if you make the vital decision to live humbly and lovingly, you will live fruitful lives and be happy."
~Takashi Nagai

Hmm, I've been thinking(Okay so for context, for all my life up to now aka since being born technically, I was raised into a family household that believed in Christianity but mostly leaned towards the Catholicism parts of such since I've heard there are many different types of people of faith with all different names and traditions, customs and cultures of said interest and everything which I think is pretty cool in its own right atleast but anyways- From what I can remember from being apart of my small and average main family system, my mom along with my grandmother from her side of relatives and such, are seemingly the most passionate and active in the church when compared to my dad. My father isn't hateful about such beliefs nor is he even considered an aethetist or agnostic, but he hasn't been following many of the typical "rules" or societal normaly that is considered when being apart of said group. For example, while my mom and grandma go to church every Sunday whenever they can so they can worship our lord and savior of God and his son, Jesus Christ, my dad is often uninterested in traveling to make the literal 5-10 minute journey though he mostly stays inside anyways watching old movies from different foreign countries sooo(No hate to him by the way, if it pleases him then I hope he has fun doing that^^). I'll admit, while I do make attempts to go with my mom, I often find myself unable to due to disinterest, but it's not disinterest in him ofcourse. I would never ad I love him very much and always have, but it feels like even though I do care about our Holy Father and that I haven't directly rejected him, my current daily life atleast as of lately has been feeling like I have currently abandoned him somehow or that I have somehow drifted away from the right path and have become deaf to his word. It honestly makes me very upset since I should be more loyal and honest to him now that I think about it. I used to be such a happy little girl who would pray every day in the morning before school and at every night before bed. I used to go to a private religious catholic school where I would go to church there sometimes too(half of the time it was mandatory on certain days during the hours but still)and even if I didn't understand everything due to my young age, I would quietly sit and listen I'm an attempt to learn more about the holy scriptures and such with my classmates and the other students from different grades/ages. I used to prepare for the moments during one's usual journey, being excited that I would become closer to God by wearing my white dress and getting baptized with other certain selected students(I don't remember what the specific event was called but I remember it being very important to me at the time)and I don't know...I sorta miss it. I miss being so happy and careless of all my anxieties but now I am stuck here...I don't want to stray away from God's love any longer, I don't want my true reality to break away because it makes me afraid of if I somehow commit some sort of unforgivable sin that'll destroy any sense of humanity I have left...(I know that sounds dramatic but please. I am really trying to make a solid attempt at explaining all of this right now so as complex as it may seem, keep in mind that my brain is starting to function again for once in the dying light that is my empty and boring life that while I am still grateful for, has been causing me much hurt and pain in so many ways). Currently I am a 16 year old eurocentric and privileged middle-class white-latino feminine presenting person who is actually a member of the LGBTQIA+ and neurodivergent community too according to doctors/psychiatrists or something(I don't know, that's what my dad has said since my late diagnosis at 12 which is that even late?? It's so confusing at times ughh but that's just how it is I guess haha).
On the internet, specifically here and on the couple of social media platforms that I publicly have, I have used these safe spaces to more accurately and honestly express myself when it comes to my identity not only when it comes to sexuality and gender but also with the intersectionality of my race and ethnicity, my hobbies, interests and talents, my wants and needs and etc. I have said before that I am a privileged and middle-class eurocentric 16 year old white-latino feminine person in real life but actually wants to present as more of who I am being a bisexual(male preference having)aceflux female to male transgender person who to be honest is probably more of a mostly male but still bigender or genderfluid person since I still feel connected to growing up in perceived girlhood but I don't know yet...who does know though at that point???Pfttt...I don't hate my body and I know God made me beautiful in my own way just like all the other unique people he created all through out the history of the planet Earth, but sometimes it can be hard since I think the most queer people see me as is just maybe a bisexual cis girl who might be on the asexual spectrum???I hope I am making some sort of sense with my explanation...somehow so with all that being said, I guess I've had some sort of short epiphany in my brain where I've realized something important for me that I've almost forgotten. I need to actively take steps to come back to God and I know somewhat of how to do it but I would appreciate a little more help from others with more expertise aka experience for those who don't have a big and fancy vocabulary in their inner-mind library haha- I do sincerly apologize if I have caused genuine annoyance for anyone with this post for whatever reason as my normal posts are coming back soon once I get back online but for now, I need to go study and do more research on how I can save myself and others for when he comes again. I know it sounds scary but it's actually wonderful so please don't be scared of him, because he loves us all no matter what and nothing can turn us away from him. Worship him and confess your sins because it's good to be honest and he loves you, after all he knows you best like you know yourself since he created the beautiful building of love and passion got the world that is your soul. It's never to late to choose him and to spread the good word of the gospel<3. Please stay safe and have a good day or night wherever you are and thank you if you've read the entire paragraphs of rambles I've written haha. I really do appreciate your support whether it be here, there or anywhere else!!:)You must keep surviving for you and I, for us and eachother but also for him too...
Also P.S: Hope you guys don't mind but I'm gonna put a nice scenery image here since I like being calmed down and enjoy embracing the beauty of nature, especially when we're lucky enough as humans to photograph the right moments atleast!!Other animals sadly only get to enjoy it in the moment which can be too fast since they're constantly needing to survive actively♡.

Catholic godzilla meme
When I was watching this scene in the movie this gave me idea for an analogy. So bear with me, I’m not good with this.
When Kaizer Ghidordah started sucking out Godzilla’s energy making him weaker and weaker, maybe even killing him. I like think that Kaizer represents sin, because when we sin, sin takes a hold of us, sucking our life, making us weaker and weaker spiritual, and as you know the wages of sin is death. But the moment the Gotengo shot an energy beam at Godzilla to give him strength and power, you can see how Kaizer got some kind of shock making him let go of Godzilla.
I like to think that when we go to confession and we confess our sins, not just to the priest but directly at Jesus Christ, that’s when the Lord sends his grace or his Spirit upon us to cleanse us from our sins and restored the strength we lost from when we were in sin’s grasp, when we are forgiven we are free from sin’s grasp. For some reason you don’t have time to go to a priest, yes you can absolutely confess directly to God then go to the priest if you got the time.
I have a testimony on my first confession in years. I’ll explain later, it’s long story in my opinion.
I’m not good how to explain the sacrament of Confession/Reconciliation….. I don’t know how to explain, here’s these verses to help you see the importance of confession.
Mark 1:5
John 20:22,23
James 5:16
2 Corinthians 5:18
Had to change filter or alter colors and speed this video so I don’t get copyright strike….
Movie: “Godzilla Final Wars”

Saint Nicholas Owen
1562-1606
Feast Day: March 22
Patronage: builders, carpenters, architects, masons.
Saint Nicholas Owen, known as “Little John” because of his short stature, was a master carpenter, who designed and built countless “priest holes” in England, during the Protestant revolution. He served the Jesuit priests and became a Jesuit Brother himself. St. Nicholas was captured two times and died in the Tower of London from his tortures, never revealing the hiding places he built. He is one of the 40 Martyrs of England and Wales.

"My real gift is acting."
Tumblr media
For Tragedy, I was going to draw Bruno as either Tybalt or Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec, but then, I thought it would be nice to share my fic here.
From my Isabela-centric fic "Something Pretty, Something True," Bruno and Camilo produce a zarzuela about San Ignacio de Antioquia (Saint Ignatius of Antioch), whose feast day is the same day as the triplets' birthday, so I made him the dedicated saint of their parish.
Born in Roman Syria, San Ignacio was bishop of Antioch. He coined the term "catholic", meaning "universal." He was mauled to death by lions in the Colosseum.
