I didn't like to go to the Church

My husband and children would attend the service every Sunday morning. It was held at our nearby shopping complex in the cinema theatre. They had converted to Christian but not me. I was brought up in a buddhist religion family. The smell of the burning incense gave me a very strong and peaceful feelings in my heart. But I wasn't a devotee. And I don't go to the temple to pray. I went with them to the church at times.On this Sunday morning, I remained seated for a while and listened to the sermons. But I realised I cannot concentrate when this lady sitting on the same roll of seats kept playing and rocking with the baby girl on her hands, I peeked at them for a while and finally I decided to borrow a pen from someone beside me and started to sketch. I'm an evil person...

My experiences at church are kind of similar. Looks like something really positive came out...

That's ok, church gives me a stomach ache. Looks like you captured the peacefullness of the moment.

This illo is cute. Well, I couldn't concentrate when I listened to the sermon when I was a teenager. I thought of all the good things God would bring me etc. You see, I am even more evil than you:-).
