Faces of Faith

So I went home for Christmas Break. 2 weeks of bliss and laziness.

Yeah my sister was there, and she gave me high blood pressure.

And yes, I wanted to strangle her and hide her body in the Chesapeake Bay.

But that didn't happen.

Yet.

What did happen though was something truly amazing in my opinion.

I went to my home church for Sunday Mass, said hi to Father Bill yadda yadda. I was about to enter the Chapel when I saw Ms. Michelle.

Now Ms. Michelle, when I left for Baylor summer school, was fat. Like, Molly Weasely fat. Red hair, white skin, the works. She even had really bad crooked teeth that were out of character for the Harry Potter woman, but thats beside the point. Whta is the main point is that when I came home for the winter break, she had literally lost like 100 pounds.

It was like seeing the female version of Subway Jared or something. I was thrown for a complete loop! She looked totally different and in a good way too! She still had the crooked teeth, but it wasn't what I was shocked about. The apparel she use to wear were large dresses that would hang off her rather large hips. Now she was wearing tight jeans that accented her figure. Before she wore large blouses that gave a sense of cover for her bosom. Now she wore a type of spandex thingy that really showed off her chest and lack of adipose tissue.

I'm not hating on Ms. Michelle, in case some of you are wondering.

But I'm just saying that despite the radical physical changes this woman went through, she still had the same bubbly and positive attitude and strong sense of religious conviction. Ms. Michelle has always been someone that has inspired me with her faith; she leads the church's RCIA team, always has something kind to say, and displays her beliefs not by words, but by action. She is truly a woman of God.

So maybe when I go back home for the summer, she'll have straight teeth and some serious blingbling.
