"I don't know," he confesses. "I told you I thought I'd be a priest, once. Follow in Brendan's footsteps and go off to Rome, find God's love the way I thought I felt it once. But... he left the Church. He had a nervous break down and he left the priesthood."

He looks at his glass, turning it around. Then he huffs a laugh.

"And then he went to America."

And he left me, again, he doesn't say.

"After that, I didn't know what to think anymore. Only that I found comfort in it still. Not the Church, not the institution of it, but-- I felt like I had nothing else."
