So I did a “Maureen” blog yesterday and get all these comments. Everyone loves Maureen. I tell people what a witch she was, and they all love her. OK, she did good, but still. What about my side? Then it hit me. I paint her from my point of view, which to think of it is painted in the shortcomings of a possible brat brother. The lesson? Never underestimate peoples’ ability to see through your own one-sided view of another person. We all bring our baggage to our opinions.
The homilies and musings of a Paulist Priest.

I sincerely hope your mission thrives. The Church these days seems overly intent on preaching politics and battering its members with ultimatums and threats instead of focusing on the messages of love, forgiveness and daily sacrifice that convert followers from the inside out and are therefore more effective in the long run!

Thanks for the early morning laughter! I also remember blogs of you going to a quiet coastal town with your other sister, (you cooked fish together, if memory serves), & those blogs also make the sister that I am smile. I love the connection of brothers and sisters.♥️
