don't mind me not participating in grace, instead, sitting quietly with head bowed as they do their thing, kind of like what I do with the Pledge at my speaking club meetings.

I'm not an atheist (nor a Christian), but I don't personally feel comfortable with ritual, even in 'my' religion. My sorority's (Epsilon Sigma Alpha) invocation is about my limit most days.

But I do like many of the prayers offered here. Much like my Methodist-in-name-only mom who gives Thanksgiving blessings on how we are all happy and thankful to be able to be together having a nice meal - and leaves it at that.

I like to thank the universe for existing in such a way that made it possible for all the good stuff to be here :)
