Anxious--and not in a good way. What if my answers aren't "good enough," what if where I am isn't deep enough for them? What if I'm not enough?<br /><br />What if I put forth all this effort, lay it all out there--and those of you who read my blog surely know I do tend to lay it all out there--what if I do all that and then get rejected? The admissions committee can accept me, recommend a waiting period or can out-and-out terminate the application process. Terminate. Finito. Go away, we don't want you. How devastating would that be? Indeed, my mind would be reeling if it were even recommended that I wait!<br /><br />Paper bag please. Ok, breathe. Slowly. In. Out. In. Out.<br /><br />These questions--as well as some that were asked in a one-on-one conversation with an individual <a href="http://pleasebangmywife.soredick.com/">please bang my wife</a> Sister this past weekend--are really making me think. And while that can be a good thing, I'm currently worried about whether I'm just trying to come up with the "right" answer--what I think they want to hear--or are those "right" answers really my answers? And I know from various other people's vocation stories that one often doesn't know, for example, "What can you do for the Church and God's Reign as a religious that you believe you cannot do as a lay woman?" until many years into the game. I mean, sure, I have some ideas, but I also know I don't know a whole lot more than I do know. Ya know?<br /><br />Ok. I'm alright.<br /><br />I think I will be anyway....<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2601603379289306911-8185814185430505693?l=angels-moneyonline.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>jillhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15729430277649270070noreply@blogger.com
