I don't know if you're gonna judge me for this, but yes, sometimes I feel that me identifying as Catholic, I always fear that others would see me as a Pharisee kind of person, someone who's like, oh, so religious, but is she living her faith? I prefer to be seen as spiritual even though I am also religious. I am both Catholic and I am spiritual. When people think of me and they're like, oh yeah, she's super religious, I cringe a little bit, and I'm scared that they'll think that I am the I'm not a person who's gonna judge them and think that they're lesser than if they don't believe in what I believe. And I guess that leads me to another private truth.
