RCIA is definitely very rewarding. The people are their of their volition. Not drug there by the scruff of their neck. I love RCIA. So beautiful.

Reminds me of our own beloved Cardinal Sitzpinkler (look it up "sitzpinkler" ) We need him here. LOL He's busy writing his 6-volume autobiography, but he'll be back soon.

So I just found out what ROPA is, and I have it. Sigh. The bitterness.
In spite of myself, I find myself still visiting the Place, but I don't know. The SQ appears palpably higher really.
I'm being mean. Sorry.

I'm being mean. Sorry. Take two game threads and call us in the morning. Think of it this way: you're shaving time of of purgatory.

Ah so, Firefly.
Yes, indeed...ROPA.
I still have some but am working diligently to be rid of it.

I think we're all affected to some extent.

Yeah, had I been in your place I think having 50 people on ignore would have been a hint and a half that it wasn't the right environment for me. TBH, I bear no ill will to TOP and still visit daily.

I still go over there daily too. I usually only post on the Prayer Intentions, but sometimes I see something "harmless" I can still post in. 🙂

Commence venting:
There is an acquaintance I've been getting to know in my moms' group (real life) who drives me absolutely batty. There are mental health issues at play, which makes me feel horrible that I dislike this person so strongly, because some of it can't be helped, but many activities or discussions we plan have been derailed by endless reminders of her limitations and problems. When we've interacted one-on-one, she has bizarre and nonsensical requests. She needs a lot of help, but only seems willing to accept help that (in my mind) enables her poor behavior.
I'm at a point now where I want to avoid her at pretty much any cost. Part of that is definitely me and my selfishness, so prayers appreciated.
