Perfection
The Catholic church has engrained in me a victim's mentality. It never taught me how to be a champion. I have for years felt it was better to lose with dignity than to believe in power and leverage. Blessed are the meek, and pity the underprivileged. I also recognize how those who persist and finish the race are cherished. Be strong in spirit. Where does our spirit live? I believe it lives in my body. I must strengthen my vessel, without decorating it for parades. The bishops, the cardinals, and high priest all celebrate their vocation with robes, incense , and basilicas, I celebrate my revolutionary vocation with a fit body, mystical thoughts, and enduring spirit that tastes fatigue in all aspects of living. So those of you who think it is better to be frail in body, I ask are you also frail in prayer?
