Have ever been in a church? Most of us have. It all depends with your religion. I have been in a church most of my life and sometimes, I get lost in my thoughts. Funny to say, we even find ourselves creating scenes in our heads. So I came up with most common categories of church members.
1. THE DREAMER: This member is always sleeping in the middle of a sermon and rises up whenever there is a laugh, a clap, a song or a response. They always make my day when they just pretend not to have dozed off. Hilarious.
THE UNSETTLED: This kind of member is ever busy doing something. Be it picking a call, flapping the song books, even playing with the kids. That annoying disturbance keeps most of the church congregation out of the sermon. You would wonder why they came in the first place. But we are taught not to judge weren't we?
THE EVER LATE: We all know them. There are those who are just too shy or "ashamed" who sit at the back, then there are the "bold and beautiful" who catwalk their way into to the front sits. The latter just amazes me because, where do you get the confidence? They usually know what they are doing. And that is to disrupt the concentration of the church. In my opinion, this is wrong.
THE CHEWERS: I have been in this situation and it was because someone told me that chewing brings concentration. Well, sometimes it does but only depends on how you are doing it. Loud chewing is the worst experience I could ever ask for. Being a perfectionist, this annoys me the most. Most of the loud chewers forget where they are and even start blowing the gum until it bursts. I bet you have the experience too.
Those were just but a few. There are many others that exist, we all know them. Bottom line is, where do you lie?
