Good Morning

 I recently found out that the Paulist Fathers, the religious order group to which I belong, retired me, that is, put me on retirement status.  I did not ask for it.  It was just done the beginning of July.  I don’t know that it changes much of my life. If I tell people I am retired they think I do nothing.  Or do something else since that is how they understand retirement.  A priest in a sense never retires.  It is like someone in recovery.  They can retire from a lot of things, but never from recovery.  I seem to be pretty busy wherever I am, so retirement does not seem to have settled into my experience of life becoming different.  One day at a time.
