Why I Veil

So, as you may have surmised from my "About Me" page, I wear a veil to Mass:

Funny enough, my daughter started the whole thing. She noticed a friend of mine wearing one and asked her about it who in turn gave her a veil and she's been wearing it ever since. NO one else in our parish wears one, at least not at the service we attend. lol But that hasn't stopped my daughter from wanting to wear hers, she's been wearing it for months and she looked so lovely that I decided to get one (or a bunch, I sort of went nuts and bought a few colors...*ahem* lol).

Obviously, I'm no theologian and I think the choice to veil or not is a personal one and whether or not you do isn't the point. I'd like to say that I prayed about it, did some in depth research, consulted high ranking smart people that know things, and then made a spiritual decision based on heavy conviction that this was something I was suppose to do.

But honestly, it just makes me feel good to wear a veil during Mass. It makes going to Mass that much more special. Sort of like, I'm showing Him that I think being in His presence is meaningful and I want to mark the occasion.
