I've seen this and known this. Being a place-holder is an accurate description. There is something about a major change that wipes a slate clean. I don't think it's entirely untentional. But it's very real.

This is awful, and I wonder how much hand-wringing about political violence we’re going to hear in the media for the next week…oh, virtually none? Huh.

Reveal to us your saving word, O God, that like your servant William Tyndale we might hear its call to repentance and new life. Plant in our hearts that same consuming passion to bring the scriptures to all people in their native tongue, and the strength to endure amidst all obstacles...βš“

Thought you had evaporated. Been worried - a bit. Glad you're here.

This sign was on the front door of our library. Then it was damaged. Then it came down.

I informed a staff member who made a note of it. Offered to pay for a new sign.

Libraries are our last line of defense against evil, imo.

Oh, I could be a bunch of priests' grandmother, but it's still Father (or Mother). They usually smile quietly to themselves.

No magic words.
No magic.

It is just a way of seeing or knowing someone or something.

Yes. You're right. Laity bless in private and as requested by a friend outside church. Typically.

I can think of a half dozen lay people I know whom I'd ask to bless me or some thing. I once asked my lay spiritual advisor to bless me on renewing my Oblate vows.

Kara, I remember seeing a photo of you blessing a car. Back on Twitter. It meant the world to me.
