Today is a very strange day. My anxiety is way up, and I am so nervous. I have been dreaming about this day for months, years even, and now that it's finally here, I am besides myself. I am glad I helped renew your faith a little @Blue_Bird, that means so much to me! Thank you so much @June08 for thinking of me today, it's a really big day.
I have periods of late @Brentus where I have not participated here, but I know that this community is one that I always come to for support. Being on this forum has been such a blessing to me, I am so grateful for everyone on here who always helps out, even when they are not feeling the best themselves.
As for me, in 5 hours I will be baptized Catholic at the Easter Vigil, something that I have wanted for a long time. Christ led me to his church years ago in New York, when I was at my worst, and then found me again on the floor of a jail cell 4 years ago, and as a born Muslim, it has been quite a journey. All of that has led up to this point, and it's finally happening tonight. Faith is where I draw my strength, and when the most manic of bipolar episodes brought me to my knees, He was always there and brought me back to sanity.
I hope everyone has a wonderful Easter weekend.
