not a logical progression

when i was a kid, i remember a small group of us in the school yard in our uniforms over in the corner, near the building. . .
it was one afternoon, among 
the many, just one that stands out in my mind. . .

we were discussing the apparitions of the Blessed Mother at Fatima.
the warnings she gave to Bernadette were rough.
they told of a World War III that was more terrible than anything that could be imagined. . .
over and over and over, she urged people of Earth to pray that the evil would not be victorious in manifesting such a thing here for us.

i remember then. i was in the 8th grade. . .age 13. . .
i knew then things would not be like everyone thought.
it would not be a logical progression.
from that point on, i made a decision to FOLLOW AN INNER LEADING about where to go. . .

about what to do, and not to care if it matched up with what the general population should do,
like finish college, get a Master’s degree, teach at a college or seminary.

instead, i made choices that seemed appropriate for learning what i wanted to know.
i didn’t study church history. i studied the construction of sacred sites.

i didn’t study Spanish. i wrote affirmations.
