It's not that my life is so terribly difficult or I work all that much, but just knowing I don't have any specific responsibilities on one day is a relief. The thing is, I used to go to church on Sundays. Regularly. Gathered the whole family and spent the entire morning there. At various points I sang in the choir and played the handbells, even taught Sunday school. But lately I've lost my enthusiasm for church. Well, actually I've been losing my enthusiasm for several years. It started back when I was so depressed. I withdrew from a lot of things and started questioning a lot of my beliefs until now I'm not sure what I believe anymore. I sort of figured it would come back eventually as I felt less bad, but so far it hasn't. I'm hoping it's more or less temporary but I'm afraid there's been an undoing, a shift on a fundamental level, so I'm not sure how and when it will resolve itself. I suppose it's better to be honest and acknowledge it than to pretend everything is as it was. You can't fix something if you don't admit it's broken. So I know I'm missing something but I simply don't have the spiritual energy it takes to start the process of figuring it out. In the meantime, I've decided Sunday mornings are good for relaxing and going to the gym with my husband. Call it the Church of the Y. That ought to count for something, shouldn't it? Taking care of myself and spending some time with my hubby? I sure hope it does.
