Easter Vigil

earlier tonight, i went to Easter Vigil Mass with my family.
i'm not sure what it was...
maybe it was the way all the candles lit up the church,
or the way the Elect seemed so happy to be getting baptized or confirmed,
or maybe it was just the true presence of God...
but i just felt at peace.
for once i felt completely at peace.


if only that feeling lingered longer than the time it took to get to the car in the parking lot after mass...
