A Snippet from My Poetry Book
I have had many crises lately. Not the crises of money (though I REALLY wish I had some more of that) or of family, it's me. The crisis of me. I was informed today that in my church, since I'm a divorced young adult, that there's basically no category to put me in. From my BISHOP. He said that I don't fit in the Young Single Adult area because the church manual basically states you are considered an adult if you have been married. So much for that ship. It's been very frustrating because I've been struggling with my faith already, and this adds salt to the wound. I'm not sure where I fit in either in my church. It physically hurts that I don't exactly have very many friends living in the neighborhood, but to have a place I thought I could meet new people kind of shun me makes it worse. So, I have turned back to my love of poetry for some sort of hope that I can find my faith again.

Ew that makes me mad! You should go to the singles ward.
That's interesting, 'cause there's a divorcee in my home ward, and they sent her promptly back to YSA. (because she's young, single, and an adult)
