In the new translations you will have three things:

Longer sentences
A higher linguistic register
More true to form from the Latin translations!

Be happy!

It really is beautiful and will change the entire tone of the Mass to a prayerful one. Look and listen for these three things.

I WILL be happy because I HAVE been happy most of my life. I started going to Mass every day back in 2005, figuring that if I REALLY believed that communion was REALLY the Body, Blood, Soul and Divinity of Jesus, our Lord and Savior, why WOULDN'T I want to have it EVERY day of my life??

Since then, I feel SO very blessed at being fortunate enough to be able to receive Holy Communion every single day of my life.
What greater happiness could I ever have?
Newer translations? WHO CARES!? What are they compared to what Mass gives us?

That being shouted from the rooftops, I do hope that more people will go to Mass and if longer sentences, a higher linguistic register and more true to form from the Latin translation will bring them in, then let's go for it.
