I am not yet a Catholic yet have been praying the Rosary daily for months. Indeed, my devotion to the Blessed Virgin Mary is one of the two things that truly cinched my choice in Christian denomination. (This and the openness to science.) Praying the Rosary gives me a greater sense of peace and enlightenment than anything else has in my entire life. Period.
However, I have been seeing that Rosaries are in First Communion sets. This leads me to wonder whether one needs to be Catholic before praying the Rosary; is it disrespectful for me to do so without?
I have been ascribing my newfound peace and love of my fellow man to my daily meditations. Every time I rise from my knees afterward, I feel this peace more deeply than before! I feel I understand the world better! I used to be argumentative and brash but now when I behold that which used to make me seethe, I feel no anger nor pain but a sincere hope that one day that it will change.
If I should not be praying the Rosary, to what should I ascribe my exaltation for truly it is something not of this world! If it permissible for me to do so, are these lovely symptoms common of Rosary mediations?
