I am very grateful for the outpouring of prayers for Mama Becky!
Please add me to your list. . .
Along with thesis-writing anxieties, I am revisiting old "issues" and contemplating old choices.
Ah, memory! Wasn't it St. Augustine who noted that memory is a blessing and a curse?
We can leave behind who we were. . .but who we were never leaves us, uh?
UPDATE @ 4.08pm: Just got off the phone with my mom. . .she's been moved to an isolation unit. The docs suspect swine flu. She's in very good spirits, complaining about the lack of a decent shower.

Dear Father Philip, I feel a strange urge to share with you what a wise person told me when I was looking into a 3rd Order vocation: Vocation isn't just what we do for God; it's also what God does for us.
Maybe that's timely, maybe not, but anyway you're in my prayers.
All the best to you.
Complaining can be a good thing. She feels like complaining, that is.
:0)
opey's right, when they feel good enough to be ornery it's a good sign.
however, I will pray for you...just read an interesting post on old baggage....must be a theme.
Dear Father,
I will pray for you and may I please ask you and your readers to pray for a very special intention?
It is rather private but urgent.
thank you.

I empathise, Padre, people react oddly when I mention that I'd like to be better at forgetting.
