blurry vision for what's to come
The older I get, the blurrier my vision for the future is. Maybe that’s just getting older and seeing how many paths you can go, and how life doesn’t dictate just one way forward. I’m not one of the lucky ones whose had the goal of being a doctor their whole lives. My desires have yet to coalesce into something solid, definitive. My vision is more slow mornings in nature and drinking earl grey…
watching. reading. playing. (enjoying!)
Canticle: a Song of Songs | Quote Series
I picked up Canticle after searching the web for books on nuns, and I had finally finished Catherine of Siena, which unfortunately was a tad of a drag. However, I enjoyed Victoria Mackenzie’s For Thy Great Pain Have Mercy on My Little Pain about both Julian of Norwich and Margery Kempe, one an anchoress and the other a woman with a wild faith. There’s a hunger as Aleys seeks after God. It’s a…
D.C. Work Trip 2026
12 thoughts: from calling to friendship
My thoughts are all over the place. I was supposed to get my DC work trip post up but that didn’t happen. Alas, we are here and I am going to share my meandering mind with you, gentle reader. Hope your mornings are bright and your flowers are blooming! 001. Change I’ve been desperating longing for change lately but I have no idea what that looks like yet. I have a million pans in the fire and…
books for the spiritually stumbling
Gentle readers, I hope the sweet days of spring are showing you kindness. In my years of reaching for God and the trials that have come, I’ve retreated to the safe space of books, where I can find another soul wrestling with the same questions and thoughts I have been carrying. If you’re in a season where Psalm 88 echoes your experience, if you have sought the book of Job for answers and tasted…

honestly the pelican advert saving bright’s life and traffic saving the day at the end is the best payoff in tv history
1) I WEPT
2) There’s even a medieval mythology reference in the first bit, on which I shall now proceed to expound because this is who I am as a person.
The pelican in its piety is a common motif in medieval Christian art:
(link to source). It was believed to tear its own flesh in order to feed its young with its blood (long story) and thus was also a symbol of Christ. Ergo, in turn, it became the crest of Corpus Christi… and you can see it over the fireplace in one of Morse and Thursday’s interviews with Richardson. So I’d argue that the script is deliberately bringing it to mind for us even before the scene with Bright. And then, of course, we get Bright’s willingness to do the right thing, to sacrifice his position to do so, coming around to save him in the end. And the fact that we get to see Bright, whom we know as a bereaved father, bringing delight to a crowd of small children, and turning to a little girl with raven braids to listen and speak to her. As I say, I wept.

building routine in a chaotic world
If you’re watching national news, scrolling social media, or even taking a step outside, you feel in the core of your being that the world is a chaotic place. It is hard to work towards goals when you constantly feel the ground shifting beneath you. And then throw in the bout of sickness that seemed to spread over the holiday and slide into the new year, it’s difficult to muster not only the…

Best Books of 2025
Gentle readers, thank you for reading this blog! We’re continuing our series of the best of 2025. This edition is all about books. 2025 was the year that I bought many a physical book, although I am a patron of the library on a regular basis. (Actually, I just got my library card renewed recently.) My taste in books are pretty firm now, though they’ve shifted over the years. My rough percentage…
