Digging that trench

"Happy are those who are not in anguish over their failings. For
if a person is hard upon themselves, to whom will they be kind?"
(Si 14:1-6,14-16)

Today, I am not happy.

Tomorrow, I must stop digging.

Good Luck!

And let us all beseech the blessing of Almighty God upon this great and noble undertaking.

This March 15, I finally start my new job.

Finally.

Here, I will begin the next great journey.

If only my other journey didn't feel like being stuck at Monte Cassino...
