Ostara aka Easter actually happened a few weeks ago at the Spring Equinox, so Happy Resurrection Day. Come on Christian invaders! If you’re going to steal our holy days at least do it right. Is what I might say if I were a modern-day polytheist with a northern hemisphere, temperate climate based pantheon that I […]
Fandango’s Provocative Question #114 – This, That, and The Other (fivedotoh.com) Do you think that there is any chance that the U.S. Congress will ever take decisive, bipartisan action to pass and enact nationwide common sense gun laws to try and stem the tide of mass shootings, or is the best that the American Congress will ever do is to […]
A quick FYI. I promised to write spiritual reflections every day. I have prayerfully decided I am taking a much-needed break for Lent, to spend some much-needed time alone with the Big Guys. Prayers and deep down love to everyone who reads this – and to all those who don’t as well. Cuz I’m an […]
I live very close to Harrisburg, Pennsylvania, comfortably in the suburbs, but I have many friends/acquaintances/former coworkers who work or live in or near the capitol complex. There may be riots there this weekend because of the presidential inauguration. Because the world didn’t have enough problems already. I know. Plus, no one has sent us […]
Last day of full-time employment at the library and I’ve already agreed to come back for at least 3 more days in January to help cover my former shift. So, I’ll be a substitute for myself…. Man, this gets meta fast! Meanwhile, I have one of my favorite Plumb songs on repeat: Now, I’m looking […]
I was going write a post on Spiritual Warfare, but then something truly sad happened this past week. For anyone reading this who doesn’t already know: Supreme Court Justice and all-around incredible woman Ruth Bader Ginsburg passed away. In honor of her, I remember. Women are people too. And no human person exists purely for […]
Dear God, Well, yesterday went badly in several ways. Top of my list is realizing that, okay, I really need to stop going to confession to have my sins forgiven. I need to stop even thinking about it. Because obviously this is not working. I know you have told me this many times, Father, so […]
I’m probably going to take a couple days off from public posting again, mostly because I spent most of the past few days working on this book until my brain ran out of thoughts. I wrote over 10,000 words, which is a lot even for me. When I type it out like that, I’m like […]
Dear God, Whenever I’m really at a loss to figure out something, my brain starts reaching for random metaphor that won’t help, like the Heart of Gold from Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy. In Hitchhiker’s Guide, Heart of Gold is this ship that flies by balancing probabilities. How interesting would that be? I don’t know. […]
Hi again who or whatever you are, Yes, some days be like that. I’m mostly writing now because that last one ended on a cryptic note. To be about as clear as stained glass, I’m not talking about my relationship with your son anymore. Because, reasons. Also, I really didn’t – and still don’t know […]
