On Becoming More of Yourself (is that grammatically correct?)

I was standing on the corner of a busy road and a not-as busy road this weekend holding a sign about valuing life. And I was supposed to be silently praying, but then an old friend of mine walked over. He’s one of those people who is probably way too cool to talk to me,ContinueContinue reading “On Becoming More of Yourself (is that grammatically correct?)”

What I Wore Wednesday

Yellow, yellow, yellow kick! I think I have yellow on the brain because of the yellow-wool I want to buy. 🙂 Well, find and buy. Ha! I wore yellow shoes yesterday and a yellow shirt today. I figured that grey goes great with yellow, hence the shirt and the tights. The skirt is technically aContinueContinue reading “What I Wore Wednesday”

St. Therese, on her feast day

Back in January I sat on a chair and Father Pio Maria sat on a couch and talked to me about my life. We’ve been doing this every January for the past few years, and it’s always a treasured time for me. He gave me a bunch of things to do to improve in holiness,ContinueContinue reading “St. Therese, on her feast day”

Lists on lists of girlie talk

It’s likely I’m starved for some girlfriend time. These are the things swirling in my system that need to get out: MY HEART IS WRENCHED BECAUSE I TOOK OUT MY CARTILAGE RING AND NOW I CAN’T GET IT BACK IN. Only out for 24 hours and it’s swollen shut. This wrenches my heart because IContinueContinue reading “Lists on lists of girlie talk”

Super short reflection!

When I was a little kid I would like to a radio program called “Adventures in Oddessy” where the main character was named “Mr. Whittaker” and he ran an ice cream shop called “Whit’s End” where he would basically have adventures and tell kids about Jesus. In all of their publications, Whit looked something likeContinueContinue reading “Super short reflection!”

Life/ Camino Word Vomit. Blah blah blah. Love, Me.

I don’t think it’s a huge surprise to say to you guys, “Hey, I have a massive internet crush on John Blase’s poetry.” (Side note: I also check One Page Love Story every day. But now it’s finished. See? I have a leetle bit of heart. But it’s kind of like the size of theContinueContinue reading “Life/ Camino Word Vomit. Blah blah blah. Love, Me.”

What sort of woman

Here’s a better reflection than I’ll ever write on today’s reading. Love, Me. In other news, this is the line that I ponder: “When the Pharisee who had invited him saw this he said to himself, ‘If this man were a prophet, he would know who and what sort of woman this is who isContinueContinue reading “What sort of woman”

La la la What I Wore Wednesday

Yeeeah, so these were taken on Tuesday. Bite me, no worries, mate. It was a cute outfit. Actually, super Colleen-centric, which is fitting since it’s her MARRIAGE WEEK and all. The skirt she found whilst we were out secondhand shopping and she was like, “I think these are your colors” and I was like, “Oh,ContinueContinue reading “La la la What I Wore Wednesday”
