Last Advent I went on a small “retreat” where there were poems and reflections I read every day, and then I’d chat with a religious sister on the phone every evening. I think the point was to be like, “Hmmm, I could be a religious sister if I wanted!” but, that isn’t exactly a pathContinueContinue reading “Realities > ideas”

Talk to me about: being single
Whoa Nelly! This one is long. Long and full of stuffs. Sheesh. Take it in stride. Pop some popcorn, get a cold drank, and wait for a long and uneventful afternoon. Or just wait for a fluffy post, I guess. If that’s what floats your boat. I’ve been mulling over things in my mind, readingContinueContinue reading “Talk to me about: being single”
Sometimes I don’t excel…and, whatever, man
Sometimes I post pictures of myself playing circus on the interwebs. But, there are other photos I don’t tag or share, and I kind of want to talk about that today. Last Thursday I couldn’t move my arms so well. Want to know why? On last Wednesday, at circus class, I was trying to learnContinueContinue reading “Sometimes I don’t excel…and, whatever, man”

Remember when I was riding my bike across the state last week so I didn’t really post a whole lot? Yes. Well. Here’s a story for you.

Seeds that one day will grow
Yeah, I’ve got stories to tell you and ideas to share. But, I also have adult things to do like probably buy a new car and maybe a new phone (maybe not. 2004, still a good year) and what not.

Here, I’ll make it easier on you
Here’s a list for you about my life. I thought about doing a weekend-recap, but I checked back on photos to try to jump-start my memory and…the best one was this llama photo. Yeah. List is is, eh? -1- I played against my oldest-brother-engineer in Scrabble this weekend and won, but we tied until theContinueContinue reading “Here, I’ll make it easier on you”
Prodigal Father
What if every morning, in that moment when you’re first aware of yourself and life and breath once more, that very moment is the same moment when God’s heart leaps and He thinks to Himself, with arms outstretched, “Maybe this is the day! Maybe today will be the day she comes back! And I willContinueContinue reading “Prodigal Father”
I CANNOT CONTAIN MY HAPPINESS
I must share it, I must. I found this picture today. AND THEN A FOUR-YEAR-OLD (or three…the internet reports different ages) MALTESE BOY PRESENTED THE POPE WITH A PLASTIC DINOSAUR. Let the awesome sink in. Apparently the boy’s grandfather is the president of Malta, and the boy had been talking about visiting the Pope andContinueContinue reading “I CANNOT CONTAIN MY HAPPINESS”
