Making Text

O.k., enough notes taken, articles read, frameworks and structures discerned, it's time to open a blank document and put "chapter I" on the top and start writing this thesis. That's how I'm going to celebrate the beginning of Ordinary Time.

Yesterday I was at school for Mass, and the homilies there often reflect the life of students and teachers: "As we move from the Baptism of the Lord into Ordinary Time, we move from the the hidden Nazareth of winter break back into the 'public ministry' of classes and writing."

Post a Comment

Faithful, or even just thoughtful criticisms are always welcome. Uninformed rudeness to other posters or to the Lord and His Church is not.

I also reserve the right to reject comments promoting things like private revelations and fringe points of view, if it seems to me like they are being presented in a misleading way.

If you raise a disagreement with something I say but I do not respond, please do not feel slighted or insulted, or imagine that this automatically means I disagree or agree with you. It's just that I don't find the comment box to be a constructive medium for certain forms of debate.
