I’m giddy with excitement, awaiting the name of the new Pope.
Yes, I’m Catholic so this is a very significant moment for me and the direction of the church and the faith. But even if I weren’t Catholic, I simply love tradition. There’s something so fervently touching about people performing the same rituals over the course of history!
Are you with me? This is not just a Catholic thing. It’s a historical event.
If people can get all excited about a football game or a soccer match, or the finale of the Bachelor, then you can get excited about electing a new Pope. Cmon people!
Can you imagine being at St. Peter’s Square right now? It’s electric. And how many of us have traveled to that very same spot?
