Hello
and welcome! So I decided to start a blog. Enough people
have praised me for my creativity and writings that I figured I should embrace
the gift and give it a chance. Don't be too critical now…I'm still
not totally convinced I'll be any good at this! And to those of you
who have gently (and not-so-gently) pushed me into writing
more…congratulations, you win. Here we go….
So…what should you
expect from here? Not much! This will be very simple…reflections
about faith, life, and relationships…entirely from my perspective, experiences,
and thoughts. This is not academic, although my nerdy side will inevitably
come out. This is not Church doctrine, although my theological background
will show occasionally. This is not professional or tied to any job,
institution, or particular affiliation, although many of my thoughts and
experiences will come from such places. This is not intensely
personal, although my personality will shine through. This is just
simple me, exercising my curiosity and wonder as I reflect on the happenings of
my young adult life.
Naming this was a
tough one. I went for 'The Essential is the Interior" because
it is, in my humble opinion, the wisest thing Fr Chaminade
said. Taking care of our heart and interior life is the single most
important part in our journey to eternal life…yet it is so often the most
overlooked. I will be the first to admit it-I am sooooo guilty of
forgetting to take time to work on me! So, as a result of (1) needing
to take more time for me, (2) needing a platform for my ponderings, and (3)
attempting to exercise and expand this writing-gift….I've landed on writing
this blog! So thank you, who-ever-you-are, for reading, and I'll do
my best to keep you engaged :)
