I went to the Unitarian Church today. I just think I’m going to have to learn to accept the fact that I am a solitary through and through. The people were nice and there wasn’t anything really wrong with the service but it just isn’t for me. I was thinking about it on the way home and what I really want is a group involved in service only. I don’t care about social times or anything else. I just want to be working with people who are doing things for other people. I was hoping that this church would have many volunteer programs in place but they didn’t really seem to have any.
I’m still interested in volunteering for my local hospice but they only start volunteers once a year. I think they said that their next meeting will be in April. In the meantime I’ll keep doing things on my own.
Like yourself, I went to services once and haven’t been back. For me, it was too much like being at Mass: singing, praying, passing the hat.
I did the Unitarian Universalist Church thing for awhile. It wasn’t for me, either.
