This Joy
If people only knew …
For two days running, circumstances led me to miss Mass. This is very unusual for me and accustomed as I am to daily Mass, its absence was very noticeable.
I suppose some reading this might consider my going to Mass daily as some kind of zealous pious dutifulness. If they only knew [...]
Thank you, Friend(s) Unknown (You know who you are)

It is first of all, an experiment. I don´t know if these webbursts will succeed. I just want to play a little …
A confession: with much of my writing I tend to be what [...]
“The Hushed Movement of Wings”
I realise I have not yet said just exactly what a webburst is. And I plan to, soon.
But one thing that will be included in the webbursts – though the webbursts will not be limited to this – are pointers.
I want to point to things on the web that seem to me particularly beautiful or [...]
The Webbursts are Coming …
A new and different weblog will shortly be properly commencing at this site …
