Miguel is talking about Lachrian Faith what's your opinions or experiences with it?

i saw. idk. i grew up there i guess. my family on my dad and fathers side are all super lachrian and i think my pa is to some extent too?? idk. my mom isnt she just like. follows along because like she lives there and likes to partake in other cultures and the lachrian faith is very much a huge part of vulgrado's culture. i used to be i think but idk i dont really believe in it anymore. i dont know how much of it is real i dont think lachrilove or serasphirit are real. i dont think legendaries are real in general anymore with some exceptions.

idk how much of it is i just dont believe in it anymore or how much is the fact that so much of my childhood has been tied to vulgrado, so much of it spent there, so much of my moms culture that i havent really gotten to experience for various reasons that im running away from it out of spite. i dont even know what region my pa is from other than not vulgrado so i sure as hell dont know his culture either. idk. i never got an island challenge and im finally getting to make itup NOW right before its too late. my mom used to tell me how she wished she coulda taken me to the festivals they have for jirachi in hoenn because we cant make a proper wish without a shrine unless we see a shooting star. a lot of stuff i know about alolan culture is because of alolans telling me after i came to narauva. most of the stuf of history and culture of both my family on my moms side and also just the world in general comes from my grandma telling me stories as a kid and i dont know how much of it is real or fake or how much is real but does or doesnt actually apply to me. she used to tell me about the wolves and kingsmen and how the hounds respected them. i dont know if she made that up and was right or we actually remembered them.

am i non religious because im non religious or am i non religious because im afraid of the fact ive all but abandoned one side of my family?

#blind spot #maple moment #//maple experiences the horrors of children with parents from different culture + the horrors of kids living in a different country than #//the one that their family comes from #//i need to clarify before anyone comes at me because some people on tumblr are stupid that like #//my parents are immigrants and also come from two different cultures and i experiance this like. can i call myself from their cultures #//when barely know one and even what i know about the other is so damn sparse and the first time i went to the country one side of #//my family is from was this year. i am an adult. i have never visited the country the other side is from and likely will not for YEARS #//so this is written from the heart to some extent + also from talking with a ton of people with similar experiances both religiously and #//culturally. but lets be real religion and culture do go hand in hand to some degree. culture and religion do shape eachother #//ask to tag btw i feel like this needs some sorta tw but i cannot think of what
