Trick or treat!!

Nine of Pentacles: Good luck attending material affairs. Attaining refinement and embracing elegance. Discipline and nobility applied to the maintenance of security and stability. The wise use of resources and foresight. The fulfillment that comes with accomplishment, and the turning of attention to higher things.

In Catholicism, is it the priest who forgives your sin? That's what I've heard and I just want to double check with a practicing Catholic because I don't really trust a lot of what I've heard or read. Sorry if this is offensive, I don't mean it to be. I'd rather get answers about Catholicism from a practicing member than the Internet. x___x

I love good questions like this! Excuse me while I ramble a bit. 

Christ, and therefore, God are the true forgivers of sin, but part of seeking forgiveness is to confess it openly and aloud to one’s community. In the Bible, God gives the power to forgive to the Son of man and then on to designated men. This is so we have someone in the community to confess to without judgment from others. This also allows us the opportunity to be given a penance to perform to help heal ourselves and others from the sin. It would be hard for everyone to receive penance instructions from God. 

My personal confession routine is to pray about my sin that night. Then write about what happened, the why, how to be better, and burn it. If it is still bothering me, I make a bee line to confession. If it is something embarrassing, I will go to a nearby parish versus my normal ones as it is sometimes easier to be candid there. I really enjoy confession when the priest directs me to certain verses or stories of a Saint who struggled with something similar. It’s great to know I’m not alone in my struggle. 

Here is a pretty decent website that addresses this issue as well.

Madoka is *very* sad; the one spin-off that takes place after the show makes it more sad and confusing, so I don't consider it canon, but the show itself is very good! Some people connect Madoka to SU (partially due to the Pearl/Rose and Madoka/Other Character parallels), but they're so different that I can barely pick up on that.

Yeah I’ve been hearing big time responses of “Oh gosh yeah it’s sad woah” which makes me think I’ll probably steer clear of it :O I can handle sad episodes, but an entire series of sad is just no thanks! Maybe if I’m on a real upswing and could use a little settling down I’ll think of it, but sad shows just aren’t what I reach for, just like sad movies aren’t my jam either! And that’s okay :)

What is Pretear?

Oh.  Oh.  If you love Princess Tutu, you might just enjoy Pretear :D :D :D It’s a really great anime, and it’s very short, with a lot of the same themes (and voice actors?!?!) that Princess Tutu has!  Magical girl, fairytale-esque, and a lovely and heartfelt story.

(psst psst it’s also all on youtube ;D)
