Opinions, opinions, opinions...

It’s just so suffocating these days. With all the news in every social media. I don’t know which one is more addictive, the social media, or the gadgets. I don’t seem to be able to get my hands off my cell phone, especially when I have so much unnoccupied time. Yeah, thanks to my manager and this big yet small organization.

Anyway, it’s about the divorce news. And me being so judgmental. And habitually, I question just everything that disrupts my peace of mind.

So why am I so pissed with the news? At first came the denial. I didn’t want to believe it, wishing it was a bad hoax. I don’t care if any other couples got divorced. It’s not hard giving them excuses. But this couple... they have a special place in my heart. I’ve seen God’s affectionate work through the husband. He’s alrady like a living saint. An example of obedience towards God.
But no. Unfortunately, it was not a bad hoax. As simple as it is, it was just another broken marriage.
People say, it’s common. Meaning, no one is perfect. Everybody can face so many horrible conditions in their lives, they have to survive and keep living, even if it means being disobedient to God. Sin is not a deadly decease nowadays after all... is it? So maybe, I should chill out a little and don’t make it such a big deal.

Shouldn’t I?

Well... I do have to stop judging. It’s not my portion nor my right to judge others. Who knows I would fall even farther than any other when faced with the same temptation. . Honestly I am indeed afraid of that. That’s one of the root cause why I’m pissed.

And the other root cause is, my unfulfilled high expectation. I guess I’ve expected too much from a mere human being. But why have I expected too much?

Probably if not most likely, I always want to see the best in people. I’m aware that, being trapped in this flesh and bones is hard. So hard it feels like a curse sometimes. But. As a priest once said, we can’t let ourselves trapped all the time in the situation where we blame everything on the flesh. Yes, we are only humans. But God has promised to give the Holy Spirit to everyone who simply asks. So, eventually, this is a matter of freewill. We are given a choice. As much as we are human beings with all the flaws, we are also creatures of light, equipped by God to fight sins and evil. Isn’t that our commitment when we decide to follow His path?
