I learn to say I'm interested in religion instead of I'm desperate to feel close to God. I explain, I'm attracted to ritual instead of I know something transcendent happens when I pray a Hail Mary; I can actually feel the air heat up around me.
Molly McCully Brown, "Bent Body, Lamb"

feliz, 25, they/she, etc. side blog of @misericordae ❣️
some bulletpoints:
- this is a religious/mostly catholic sideblog. mostly devoted to devotional art & the like as it's nice to keep it in one place.
- not a tradcath/sedevecantist/anything weird and bigoted. i'm just way too attached to transubstantiation & mother mary to be a protestant.
- i love medieval saints and devotionals, folk catholicism (latam in particular), and collecting too many rosaries and prayer cards
