I tend to live on the edge. What is that? I speak publicly without a script in front of me, no teleprompter either. So if I make a mistake, a fact wrong, or lose my train of thought, everyone knows it instantly. And it can effect everything else that I say. Instead of listening for me nuggets of wisdom, people are thinking, "Oh he is such a nice priest, but getting up there in years. Time to retire him." But I continue to speak without a script in sermons and zoom or facebook talks. In my blogs I make typo mistakes, and don't see them even with proofreading. Yet, I don't think it is time to leave the pulpit, or exit social media. I know a bit about what our President is going through. A couple of people prefer me to hang in there. So I do.

ReplyDeleteYes, it is not your time. Your daily reminder to get out of ourselves is cherished. Thank you for hanging in there!
ReplyDeleteYes… you’re human. Maybe a bit older… certainly not a crime! Sad that President Biden was treated the way he was. Happy that he can move on & focus on other things. I’m always grateful for your focus & most valuable work. Thank you 🙏
