You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, with all your mind, and with all your strength.’ The second is this: ‘You shall love your neighbor as yourself.’ There is no other commandment greater than these. Mark 12:30, 31 Do not look forward in fear to the … Continue reading As you love your Self

Twenty-Five
Shhh don't tell anyone, please. Oh wait I've probably alrady admitted it...I get distracted at Mass sometimes. Sometimes it's life, sometimes it's people, sometimes I have a hard time understanding the Celebrant. I do try to bring myself back to the present moment, there's not anything more important than that Moment. And tonight what really … Continue reading Twenty-Five
These dark days
Over the last 10 days or so I've been marathon watching The Lord of the Rings Trilogy - the extended versions of course. Have you watched these movies? Have you read the books? The extended versions are closer to the original JRR Tolkein story. Honestly they totally could have made longer movies. That said when … Continue reading These dark days
Waltzing
Backwards in High Heels. I'm linking over the page where she explains why she chose the name. I'd heard the quote/story of Ginger Rogers doing everything everything Fred Astaire did, only backwards, and in high heels. Every once in a while when I was a teenager I'd watch waltzing competitions on PBS. These competitions were … Continue reading Waltzing
A Moment of Gratitude
Sometimes God whispers, "I love you!" through a series of comments that simply affirm that teaching and writing are part of my vocation. Three little comments. Three different people. And in one a realization of something I long for that now I can adequately say. Thank You God! for these moments. For the whispers of love, … Continue reading A Moment of Gratitude
Morning Musing
While on the bus last night the song lyrics were "fill me up Lord, fill me up Lord", my mind kept saying "empty me out Lord, empty me out Lord". I've shared with a few friends that with the shop closing, with needing to look for work, that there is a sense of being lost. … Continue reading Morning Musing
Sometimes I hope
That I'm really listening. The other night as I climbed into bed *short girl/tall bed* I remembered a scene from Touched by an Angel where Monica, was standing in the middle of the desert. I don't remember why she needed to go there, in fact I'd say it really doesn't matter. But what I remember … Continue reading Sometimes I hope
Supply and Demand
Earlier this year I got a new phone. I needed one with more memory as the older one "lost" memory when I had to do a hard reset. I was constantly clearing cache, removing apps, trying to turn off built-in apps. So I purchased a new phone, with more memory giving me room for regular … Continue reading Supply and Demand
Palm Sunday
Passion Sunday Today starts a little bit differently. We greet the Lord as a Great King, carpeting the road with Palm branches, as one would. There is something in the human spirit, in that moment that recognized the Truth of the Experience of Jesus. Perhaps, as often is the case, some joined the crowd so as not to … Continue reading Palm Sunday
If only to prove I’m real
and not pie in the sky happy, goofy and a complete air head. Not that anyone of you would believe that for a moment anyway because you are real as well. You know that life, that faith, has it's moments where things feel like that moment when we first sat at our sewing machines to … Continue reading If only to prove I’m real
