My Very First Post

First off, there are many things i would like to write about cause finally i am able to express it all out so today i chose to talk about something that i am experiencing at the moment.

I am a roman catholic and as a roman catholic we have many stages that we would need to undergo. Well i am currently preparing myself for my confirmation which will be about 1 month from now so in order of preparing myself for it i had to attend a preparation camp which was held 2 weeks ago. This camp was unlike any other camp i have been to, religious ones i mean. Anyways the experience that i've gained in that camp is extraordinary.

To be a honest, i wasn't really into my faith. I mean i believed in it, i trusted it but i never really knew my faith deeply. I only knew the outline of it. I wasn't living the life of a catholic, i don't pray except for sundays when i am at mass. I wasn't being a practising catholic you could say. I would go to church only because i had to and not because i want to.

That has changed now. When i started my cathecism class for confirmation this year my views on life, my faith, people and so on has changed. I've become a better person. I've strong moral values now. I pray cause i want to and after attending that camp it changed me even more. It changed me completely. It wasn't what i heard the camp that changed my views. It was what i felt, it was god. It was that deep connection that i felt, it was that special relationship with god that was once lost is now renewed.

I hope to experience this great feeling even more. I cant wait for my confirmation ceremony. To those who are catholics who have lost ur path, trust and have faith in god. Keep doing so and u will be rewarded,trust me!
