as i was walking back from work (smiling at my portuguese egg tarts and d24 durian mooncakes), these were my outgoing messages:
> baby i might love working at this place. today another boss told me that when he's stressed, he shuts the door and says a short prayer. catholic too!
> i think it's really quite a humbling experience here really. in a different way. lol.
> haha yeah. it's like God's forcing me to pray you know. a constant reminder that He's there and life's not all about work.
it's a little overwhelming, the whole everyone-is-catholic-and-you'll know God's in this place thing. i'm definitely not a 'good' catholic, and i told them just that. funny thing was, they said the same thing but it feels like they're more devout than me. and when we really just let go, things out of the ordinary happen.
someone just said to me, 'i like being catholic because it's predictable'. but i tell you, it's going to be far from it. my human nature fights the very notion of being catholic because it really means putting myself out of my rational comfort zone. it's amusing how that person sees our religion as being 'safe' and comfortable because he doesn't like being placed out of his routine.
being catholic makes me more aware. on how i am still so lacking before Him. and how He works his magic through the most unexpected ways.
