You're right! While it was novus ordo, it was also a very disciplined Dominican parish, and their liturgy was extremely tight and on point, with a very old and comforting building. I have a lot of respect for their dedication to bringing to life the spirit they are worshiping.
Jesus' followers don't do him justice. I get it, following his examples and commandments would not have been sustainable had everyone done it as commanded. Yet, after a point the message gets completely lost and the actions become counterproductive.
I'll be sure to talk to the trees outside, there are quite a lot around here.
I may have some level of empathic sensitivity. I did sense a terrible occurrance right around when I discovered my high school best friend had died. Same with my maternal grandparents. I felt the moment of my grandfather's passing, and spoke a bard's tongue premonition of my grandmother's passing on the day of her death. But as for channeling this, I have no idea how I would do so.
