The Struggle Is Real When Being Raised As Catholic

#1: The Pain

Your knee's ache beyond belief from all the praying..or maybe something else eh?

Strangers always said, "You have something on your head" on Ash Wednesday, but you wore it with a sense of PRIDE.

Ate all the chocolate once Lent is over

Unfortunately, fish became a food you never wanted to eat again during Lent.

Became everything after Lent...EVERYTHING.

Sundays are supposed to be your lazy day so you want to sleep in.

You feel guilty for doing so, that Catholic guilt is real.

You never really know what to say during confession.

Growing up, the meaning of the word 'Sin' was always a tad confusing.

You love Christmas, but hate staying up for Midnight Mass.

You always made sure to stand a few feet away from your dance partner.

You always had the most interesting books in your room.

Always have to fight the crowd to dip those naughty fingers in holy water.

You feel extremely guilty when you don't have money for the collection plate.

You were always upset when you got a secondary role.
