    True?

    The result of a consistent and total substitution of lies for factual truth is not that the lie will now be accepted as truth and truth be defamed as a lie, but that the sense by which we take our bearings in the real world—and the category of truth versus falsehood is among the mental means to this end—is being destroyed.

  • Reminder for the 21st Sunday in Ordinary Time, August 24, 2025

    Isaiah 66:  I know their works and their thoughts, and I come to gather nations of every language; they shall come and see my glory.

    Hebrews 12:  So strengthen your drooping hands and your weak knees.  Make straight paths for your feet, that what is lame may not be disjointed but healed.

    Luke 13:  For behold, some are last who will be first, and some are first who will be last."

                                Summer 2
                                                                       

    Truth is time-bound, winning is fleeting, competition fails us, accumulations go to dust. Only love remains. Novalis says of it: “Love works magic/ It is the final purpose/ of the world story,/ The Amen of the universe.”

    The Monastic Way, Sister Joan Chittister
