Oh, hai. Even if you don’t understand Marian devotion, I have a Marian devotion, and we can talk more about it later if you want, but, for now, I’m just going to jump in with some short things, all disconnected, about Mary. I’ve been loving them. Let’s jump in! These don’t connect, but here theyContinueContinue reading “4 quick, unrelated reflections on Mary”

Talk to me about: things Young Adults need
Guided by a singular Hail Mary and local-mall-food-court dinner, Kathryn-of-the-quizibrow and I met to talk about something. (OH MY GOSH, I JUST REMEMBERED: I WAS EVEN WEARING MY MADELINE DRESS. But, I took off the red tie and wore heels so: I don’t think anyone noticed. Except Kathryn. And the Apple-store guy all, “I loveContinueContinue reading “Talk to me about: things Young Adults need”
This is my prayer life
There are days when I feel like Running into the office of the Almighty And holding up a list and saying, “You see?? These are all of the things I don’t know how to do, All of the answers I don’t have, All of my inadequacies and insecurities!” And, in my mind, I would standContinueContinue reading “This is my prayer life”
Three reminders about you and your spiritual life
Two Sundays back, in the dark evening, I drove to the close-church because they have a chapel and Jesus is there PERPETUALLY and I was ready for that party, yo. I ran into my youngest brother, though, leaving church and he was like, “Mom said that I should go see this speaker who is presentingContinueContinue reading “Three reminders about you and your spiritual life”
God is good to me
The most stuff, right? The weekend with a lot of things, a lot of people, a lot of chores to be done and things to be executed just so. Mouth ulcer just thinking about it. Then this happened. I was driving to work this morning, and I remember swiping the key-card that admits me toContinueContinue reading “God is good to me”
Cheers.
I have this one friend who is way cooler than me, and way holier and way more popular and way more educated and everything (and older! ahhahaha!). So, I called him last night. I was ready to say, “Yeah, I’ve got all these things in my life, but I’m not 100% sure what I’m supposedContinueContinue reading “Cheers.”
Such words. Much length. Very racial injustices and how I don’t know how to love as I should
Monday I went running. I ran the farthest I’ve ever run, which isn’t actually far, only five miles, because Christine is training for a half-marathon and I’ve been training for the halves of her half-marathon so that when she runs the loops twice, I only run them once. Don’t judge. It’s my own form ofContinueContinue reading “Such words. Much length. Very racial injustices and how I don’t know how to love as I should”
I think it’s funny that there are people who think I should have a thigh gap
Julia threw down some serious awesome in my inbox early in the weekend, and I asked her permission to share. For real. I just had this hilarious moment where I loved my body and I laughed in the face of anyone who’s ever insinuated I should be anything else. I love being strong! I loveContinueContinue reading “I think it’s funny that there are people who think I should have a thigh gap”
Forever grateful for holy priests
“Can you just remind me about Jesus?” I asked him. I asked because I know he knows Jesus. I know he’s talked to him, heard his words, dropped things and followed. I know he’s deeply familiar with the everlasting love. I know he radiates hope and joy and light, which means he’s given himself awayContinueContinue reading “Forever grateful for holy priests”
For all my ladiez
I don’t always post art on the internets. Because I’m not as brave as other artists. So, when I do, it’s because I’m being for real. This one first: Once it was someone’s birthday. And he had remembered my birthday and he teased me for not remembering his, so I told him I’d take himContinueContinue reading “For all my ladiez”
