Reflections of an Acolyte: Jerk Hat

http://reflectionsofanacolyte.blogspot.com/2011/06/jerk-hat.html

Reflections of an Acolyte. Friday, June 3, 2011. The other day I was listening to Matt Galloway on CBC Radio’s Metro Morning (Metro Morning). I loved the sense of self confidence apparent in that reaction. How many of us would have been personally offended? How many of us would have been angry at the stranger feeling the need to comment on our attire? How many of us would have never worn that hat again? She laughed and continues to wear it to this day. She likes it and that’s all that matters. I love all...

Reflections of an Acolyte: June 2011

http://reflectionsofanacolyte.blogspot.com/2011_06_01_archive.html

Reflections of an Acolyte. Saturday, June 4, 2011. Last week my sister and I went to hear Maya Angelou speak at Roy Thompson Hall. The evening began with a few songs from a singer (unknown to me since we didn't get a program! And then she began to talk - and occasionally to sing or read, and often to laugh - for about 45 minutes. It was a great evening. So, listen to Maya and be a rainbow. Friday, June 3, 2011. How many of us would have been angry at the stranger feeling the need to comment on our attire?

Reflections of an Acolyte: March 2010

http://reflectionsofanacolyte.blogspot.com/2010_03_01_archive.html

Reflections of an Acolyte. Wednesday, March 31, 2010. After 5 1/2 years of being without a dog I got a puppy at New Years. I was one cat away from being the crazy cat woman of Etobicoke. That was 3 months ago and at this point I can't imagine my life without him. Trying to make small talk with people who appear to know an awful lot more than I about how to raise and train a puppy. The sun is shining. The dog is happy and healthy. What could be better. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). The View from Here. One o...

Reflections of an Acolyte: God will not be distracted

http://reflectionsofanacolyte.blogspot.com/2010/10/god-will-not-be-distracted.html

Reflections of an Acolyte. Sunday, October 24, 2010. God will not be distracted. I reconnected recently with a friend. It's been about 8 years since we spoke and now she lives in one city and I in an other. It happened 'accidentally' when she selected my name on Facebook instead of someone with a very similar name. As we talked we also shared our favorite poems and quotes and one I mentioned was from Dietrich Bonhoeffer, titled 'Separation from Those we Love'. Here's the treatise in its entirety. Thirdly...

Reflections of an Acolyte: AN ACTIVE PARTICIPANT IN MY OWN SALVATION

http://reflectionsofanacolyte.blogspot.com/2010/11/active-participant-in-my-own-salvation.html

Reflections of an Acolyte. Friday, November 12, 2010. AN ACTIVE PARTICIPANT IN MY OWN SALVATION. Edison Pena, perhaps the most famous of the rescued Chilean miners, travelled to. To appear on the David Letterman show and to participate in the. Marathon. He was also treated to a visit to. After it became known that he was a big Elvis fan. In order to remain healthy while trapped underground he ran 3 - 6 miles every day listening to Elvis on his ipod. Something I have thought much about since I heard it.

Reflections of an Acolyte: December 2010

http://reflectionsofanacolyte.blogspot.com/2010_12_01_archive.html

Reflections of an Acolyte. Sunday, December 5, 2010. All this for a tree. I read a great story not long ago about a tree. I seem to have developed an affinity for trees. When my mother died my sister and I had to select a memorial tree for her in the arboretum near my sister's home. The understanding was that we were going to distribute Mom's ashes around the tree and then, eventually, Dad's as well. I joke with my husband that we can't ever sell our house because I couldn't bear to leave the tree! While...

Reflections of an Acolyte: July 2010

http://reflectionsofanacolyte.blogspot.com/2010_07_01_archive.html

Reflections of an Acolyte. Thursday, July 8, 2010. Today is July 8th, 2010. 6 years ago today my mother died. 2 years ago today my father died. Exactly 4 years apart. Mom was 83 when she died. Dad, 95. We had them a good long time. But not long enough. Never long enough. Maybe Because they're together and I sense they are always together? But I digress. That particular day he made me read the last few pages of the book out loud and then give him my interpretation (which was the polar opposite of his ...
