Hawk Visit

DS just took this picture of a hawk that had landed on a pine outside of our sun room. I read online that since a hawk has keen vision, to some cultures a hawk symbolizes awareness and vision beyond what is obvious to the naked eye.

To me, that vision can only come from our Creator, who sees all things.

Today, I spent some time in front of the Blessed Sacrament and lifted up all my worries and concerns to God, who sees beyond what I can see.

Another bat

Today, I was at Mass in Emmitsburg and I thought I saw a little bird flying around. I thought, "How cute", until I realized it was a bat. I don't know what ever happened to it. I'm simultaneously glad and sorry I didn't see it again.

Dymphna's favorite quotes


"Slavery ended in medieval Europe only because the church extended its sacraments to all slaves and then managed to impose a ban on the enslavement of Christians (and of Jews). Within the context of medieval Europe, that prohibition was effectively a rule of universal abolition. "— Rodney Stark
