Peace

Hi, everyone!

I know I haven't been here in a while. I've just been pondering a lot of stuff.

I -- and probably most of you -- have been disturbed by the unrest and horrible division going on in our country.

Thus, I have been meditating upon the words of Pope Francis and the spiritualities of St. Francis and St. Benedict. They are all people of peace. They show a way to peace that transcends politics, that embraces the unity of creation and the love we should all have for creation -- including our fellow human beings.

I need to find a way for my life that does not cause me anxiety, but allows me to feel peace inside and that allows me to embrace beauty and creation and humanity (even that part of humanity I disagree with on important issues).

So, that's what I've been up to.

And I wish peace to all of you.
