I am always pleased to enter a Catholic community where there is commonality on basic beliefs.  It is so nice not to have to reinvent the wheel in matters of faith.  I was born, raised, and educated a Catholic which I have remained into advancing years.  Age, of course, is relative.  I feel that one feels getting older if one looks backward.  On the other hand, one feels getting younger if one looks forward, since you remain just a babe relative to eternity no matter how old you get.  Is that not so very nice?  It makes it so much easier to become as little children as we must become to our heavenly Father if we wish to enter into His home.
Cheers,
MikeReilly
