I'm still alive, but I'm not heavily blogging until I return to Mesa, AZ from Mobile, AL. I'll leave you with some current topics of thought.

1. Trying to be a monastic in the world (neo-monastic aspirant)
2. Affirmations of a call
3. an awakening and pervasive sense of poignancy in everyday life
4. the act (art) of letting go of family
5. Presence as ministry
5. distance between my biological family and myself
6. Toward better communication with Laura about all of this
7. Meeting with priests
8. my own lack of humility
