Like she said “just come with us and the “喜氣” is gonna get rid of your depression”
Holy shit wtf?
Last time I went 2 hours to some stupid holiday family gathering dinner thing, it was MISERABLE, and my aunt’s kids be drooling over the fucking food and it was nasty as fuck, I think I got food poisoning last time.
Like I don’t even know this random cousin lol, we don’t even live in the same city, why the fuck did they even invite us to be a guest in their stupid wedding ceromony, like, I ain’t your friend lol. I don’t wanna go and have a panic attack wtf.
Fine, you believe your shit, I’m Jesus’s second son then, and I’m gonna lead people to create God’s kingdom (/obvious sarcasm)
What the fuck. Is there mass hysteria right now? How do these people exist? Wtf.
Honestly, this probably explains people supporting conservatism.
Like do I go to this stupid thing so I can prove my mother wrong? I’m gonns get more anxiety after this stupid event.
Like I don’t even like the cuisine, last time I went to a cousin’s “Sweet 16” when I was a kid, I HATED IT, the food SUCKED.
I don’t know how your “soul clensing” spiritualism is even supposed to work when the reality is, I will have a panic attack.
Sorry for the rant, I’m just so… bewildered at this stupid belief of “soul clensing” what the fuck?!?
You cannot “prove your mother wrong”. Ever. She’ll just find another explanation, no matter how convoluted or irrational, which she will comfortably believe. One of the keystones of many religions is the importance of faith over concrete proof. You cannot use logic to change inherently illogical, closely held beliefs. Tolerance, patience (and, when circumstances call for it, respect) is the best way to deal with people who insist on thinking this way.
You can, however, make choices for yourself. DO NOT GO TO THE WEDDING IF YOU DON’T WANT TO. You are every bit as entitled to your beliefs as she is. Under NO circumstances are her beliefs more “real” or “important” than your own.
A person’s religion gives them rules that THEY have to follow - not you.
