At Cloverleaf while looking through a display of gaudy jewelry featuring St. Benedict and Miraculous Medals as centerpieces. (Called "Pax Circles" and "Magdalena Charms")
Me: I don't know whether to be flattered or disconcerted that the symbols of my religion are being used in couture jewelry.
Owner: I never understood crosses anyway. You think if Jesus comes back he wants to look at a bunch of crosses?
Me: Still, I have to wonder how many people wear these without any idea what they mean.
Owner: I couldn't tell you what they mean, I know that.

Hello and welcome! This blog deals with many aspects of my daily life, from the sweet and silly to the sad and stressful. And like any blogger, I CRAVE feedback.
There will be times when this blog deals with weighty issues of doctrine and theology. I welcome various differing opinions and believe civil, healthy debate is a good thing. However, if you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all, as the saying goes, and I will defend the Church if She comes under attack. Thank you for understanding. :-)

ReplyDeleteWe've been lucky enough to meet before, but I wanted you to know about a conference I'll be attending, just in case you're free in July and would like to meet up again!
