#i need to pray so hard

[wakemeupfrommyslumber]

sooooooooo

yesterday I went to the mass again, like I have been doing every sunday. I was with my boyfriend and we were asked if we could help

I FREAKED OUT

We took the offertory to the priest and in the end I was literally shaking. I had to hold my tears and tell my boyfriend I was fine. I kind of was, but at the same time I was having a terrible time.

btw yesterday I prayed my first hail mary. In the midst of all of this you guys can imagine that me, with my protestant background, has never been so nervous. I felt like I could do it since I really feel like now I understand the saints intercession and theres no wrong in asking for Mary's intercession too

I am afraid and nervous. Its the "if I'm wrong I'm sinning so hard" that gets me and makes me feel desperate.

I don't know who I am anymore :(

You don't wish your disability was worse or more visible, you wish your disability was taken seriously. Please stop confusing the two, I guarantee you would not get the support you need JUST by being more severe or more visible. Please listen to visibly disabled people when we tell you it isn't better on our side

Speaking of stalking art students, I’ve been following your blog since you were 15 and it’s been cool to see you finish high school and go to art school and now you’re like? Finishing art school?!? Soon???? It doesn’t feel like much time to me but it’s probably felt a lot longer to you.

it simultaneously feels like an insane amount of time and no time at all. I still remember exactly where i was when my first post got over 100 notes. but it's also been literally 6 years. crazy. if i think about the fact that im graduating in may for too long i'll throw up probably

Why is this book about 1880s London Jews so relatable to the 2020s American Roman Catholic experience?

In Amy Levy's Reuben Sachs, you've got:

The community that is at once fully part of the modern world while having an insular nature (and the amount of modern vs. insular varies based on the person and family)

The people who ignore their religion 99% of the year, but wouldn't even consider skipping services on the important holidays

The ultra-traditionalists who go so intense on holding to traditions that a lot of other members of their religion side-eye them

The kids who go to services only because their parents force them to, or who rebel and refuse to go because they don't see the point or don't believe in God

The new convert who is more zealous than, like, 90% of the people who were born into this religion

A family with its very specific blend of religious opinions and inside jokes that's fully aware that they're baffling to outsiders

This book was apparently meant to be a realistic portrait of Jewish life (in response to Daniel Deronda and its (according to Levy) highly unrealistic and over-idealized portrayal of Jews), and my goodness, did she succeed in capturing what it's like to live in a culturally religious community in a rapidly secularizing world.

What if Ratio isn’t just some guy but a spy for another faction, like maybe he is part of the masked fools or another faction? How betrayed would Topaz and Aventurine feel that they’re friend isn’t who he said he was? That Ratio was just playing a role to gather information.

Or even worse if Dr. Ratio was Oswaldo right hand man, sent to disrupt and spy on the ten stonehearts and in doing so seduces two to make Diamond jealous and distracted. Like Oswaldo main competitor is Diamond and maybe he sent Ratio to keep track of the stonehearts movement?

I think I would die horrifically in a fire but that would also be incredibly compelling so I don’t hate it either.

Oh Ratio being a spy, oh Ratio being a betrayer, that would hurt so bad because he’s presented as someone who cares sososo much and to have that just be a lie? Ugh I hate it just as much as I love it

Imagine the look on Aventurine’s face as the person closest to him turned out to be a spy all along

The person who gave him a reason to live having never cared in the first place

Now that’s all well and good and I’m not lying when I say I would never recover from that, but imagine this

It’s a double cross

You still get the betrayal, the devastation, but Ratio has always been good at playing the fool. He did it at the space station, he did it in Penacony, and he’s doing it now.

He almost gives up, seeing how broken the other two look, but Ratio is playing the long run and everyone is none the wiser.

So they win, and Oswaldo is gone for good, Ratio gets injured, and is backed into a corner by both Aventurine, Topaz, and the astral express, and they are about to demand answers and/or even kill him.

Aventurine is the angriest, he grabs him by the shoulder and demands Ratio give him answers, give him anything.

He just smiles

And asks them who they think allowed them to be victorious in the first place?

Everything clicks, Ratio passes out and it all falls apart.

It will piece itself back together again, BUT GODDDDD GODDDD HOYO IF YOU DO THIS I WILL FORGIVE YOU FOR ALL YOUR SINS

PLEASE DO IT PLEASE DO IT PLEASE PLWASE PLWASE PLEASE PLS OKS PLS OLS PLSSSSS

Was feeling bad so drew some harpvor for soul:3

Also god I'm so sane abt this information from wiki. So normal

[pusangkambing]

Okay so we saw how roier reacted to foolish being left in the nether and how he reacted to everyone joking about how foolish is stuck there and they'll have to plan him a funeral. Even if it was just jokes, he was clearly still upset by this

Now imagine his reaction in finding out that jaiden HAS actually gone missing and there's no clue whatsoever to indicate where they could possibly find her...

I’m PRAYING for PLEASE work out!!!! You deserve that apparment!!! God! I’m so excited!

ME TOOOOO!!!

The beach at Yaffa is one of my favorite places in the world. We used to walk along this biiiiiiig stretch that went from Tel Ar-Rabee’a down to the old city in Yaffa and the sea was just. Right there. Honestly just sitting/leaning against the old stone wall that lines the walkway down on the Yaffa side of the beach was one of my favorite things in the world because you’d look out over the insanely blue water of the Mediterranean and see the minaret of the mosque down in the distance. People would fish and kids would ride their bikes and families would have picnics and it felt like being in another world. I miss it so much it makes me ache :(

i literally burst into tears not even a second after reading the first sentence. mashallah the beach sounds so so so beautiful i'm so happy you were able to enjoy it. i'm crying so hard over this ya rab this is so sweet and so heartbreaking to me. the pure joy of all the people and the atmosphere and the view sounds so lovely. i hope with my whole heart that you get to see the beach again. inshallah ameen

When she's not running around as Ninja or Summoner , Arsay's next choice is the lance. Being bestowed a source of draconic power by Midgardsormr moments before his slumber, and knowing how to channel the powers of Bahamut with dreadwyrm trance, Arsay's power as a Dragoon rivals that of even the former Azure Dragoon. With that said, she'd much rather use her polearm to hunt monsters.
