What’s up?

Posted on by

Very little if you have looked at my output lately. Today I finally opened up my blog and started looking at what has, and not has been happening to it!

It does not seem that long ago (heh!) that I entered some postings. My hope was to add to the conversations being had about the Catholic Church, the Nation, what is happening in our individual lives. To say I have been disappointed with myself would be an understatement!

So let’s begin over…again! My wife and I have moved to Cape Cod in Massachusetts. Our siblings encouraged the move and my retirement. It is a beautiful place. The need to be doing something may have brought me back to this blog.

I will be exploring what these moves and changes will mean for me; how it will affect me! And how it will affect my relationship with the Church, and ultimately with God!

I am still trying to keep up praying the Liturgy of Hours on a regular basis. I regularly attend Sunday Mass. And I am keeping up with my spiritual reading.

I am not sure what my role as a Deacon will be, I am going to be in another diocese. And maybe I am being drawn to something else.

Bottom line, I am starting over, with new hopes, and personal challenges! Buckle up all!

Starting Off On A Journey; …Again!

I am trying to write this “posting” on a kitchen table, located in a small house, in Orleans MA; which is located on Cape Cod. Long story, but eventually my wife and I will be in residence at a place in Hyannis; also located on the Cape. Long story short, we were offered an arrangement we could not refuse.

I know I have not actually written anything recently for this blog. What is out there are some old postings, and postings by other authors I have shared. But nothing recently, nothing helpful, nothing created towards achieving the goals I had hoped to achieve with this blog.

A long time ago, I learned about the world of blogging, and I was excited about it. I am former Catholic seminarian, but still very involved with the Church, I saw blogging as a means to help evangelize, to spread the Good News about Jesus Christ. I read everything about blogging, how to get a blog started, writing techniques, etc. I established this blog and started out on my blogging journey.

To be honest, this journey has not been as successful as I had hoped. And to say that I was disappointed with the results would be an understatement.. As time went on, I found it was getting harder to pound those keys.

There is something within me though, that does not wish to give up the ghost. At least not yet. So I am going to have another go at. Where this will lead me on my journey of blogging; of evangelizing; of faith; I haven’t a clue. But, I’m off!
