LASARET.... Retreat.... The so-called a time to spend time with "God." But how about those people who have different perspective in his/her idea of a higher being?
I know that many of you know my different kind of belief which is not aligned with the most of the conventions. Some labeled me an atheist and some labeled me as an agnostic but for me, I don't care about those labels and I don't give myself any label. There are times that I think atheistically, sometimes agnostic, but there are times I also do theist practices. There is an activity in the LASARET called "coming home" wherein part of it says that you'll feel the presence of God in that activity. There's nothing wrong in trying right? Wala namang mawawala sa akin eh. After doing the activity, honestly, I don't really feel what they call that presence of God. I don't know. There is just two possibilities: there is a problem in my way of thinking or "God" created me with this way of thinking. I believe in the possibility that God really exist. There are also times that I pray but my only difference with others is I don't expect that my prayers will be answered because when I have problems, I'm solving them using realistic and empirical solutions because I really hate uncertainties. I do not know if prayers are really being answered or not and I don't care if what is the real situation. The important is that I do have my own principles wherein not doing improper actions against other people because I believe that people can still be good persons whether God exists or don't.
The activities in LASARET are great especially the Solidarity meal, the drawing activity and the time capsule. I'm really excited about that concept of time capsule but I won't tell the procedures because I don't want to be spoiler. My group mates in this activity is Per, Nazca, Ina, Abby and Kim (Thank you!!! I will never forget you!!!) with the motto: "We are rockstars from heaven and for our fellow countrymen!!!"
*groupmates, please correct me if I'm wrong... hehehe
