“oh I’m too old for stuffed animals” skill issue. sorry you can’t appreciate little creatures made to hang out with you, I on the other hand am full of joyous whimsy and therefore vastly superior.

Hey students, here’s a pro tip: do not write an email to your prof while you’re seriously sick.
Signed, a person who somehow came up with “dear hello, I am sick and not sure if I’ll be alive to come tomorrow and I’m sorry, best slutantions, [name]”.

Hey stop thinking of God and Jesus as your "homie" or "the man upstairs" or even your "best friend" in the same sense as your human best friends.
I get where those impulses come from--they help you feel relationally "closer" to God. But that's the thing. The whole Gospel is "He's way high above you and totally perfect and in complete authority over you—and yet you can still have a close intimate relationship with Him, without that aspect of His nature ever lessening or changing."
That's the wonder and the awesomeness of the Gospel—that His holiness and otherness and authority doesn't make your relationship less intimate, and in fact, you can have the closest relationship to Him of your whole life. Without Him ever being brought down to your level. That's the wonder of the Gospel. Don't cheapen it by letting humanism-shortcuts taint your view of Him. Don't settle for normal mud pies when it's actually an extravagant feast like nothing else you can taste.
Leviticus 10:3: "By those who come near Me I will be treated as holy."

Perfectly matching and replicating colors just by seeing them is an art, and, while it's also a very useful task, people who can do this are primarily artists.

If only
Tumblr media
(for someone who’s stuck in an “if only” state of mind)
If only                .
We fill in the blank in a thousand different ways.
If only I could go back there again. If only he hadn’t said that. If only I could talk to her. If only they hadn’t done that.
No matter how we fill in the blank, they’re all really just ways of wishing for something we used to have. Or something we wish we had. Or something we never had. Or who we thought someone was.
Regardless, we don’t have it right now.
Really, it’s a little way of grieving for what we’ve lost.
It’s understandable. It’s okay to grieve. Because all of us have lost something. Including things that we hoped for, but that never happened.
Those losses? They’re the kind of losses that put us in an “if only” state of mind.
Wondering what things would have been like, if only…
Wondering why it didn’t last, if only…
A state of mind in which we can easily get stuck looking off in the distance. Whether it’s to a past we’ve lost. Or to a future that may never come. Or a bit of both.
Looking off in the distance isn’t the problem. It’s getting stuck. Putting all of our hopes, our dreams, our plans, our willingness to be who God created us to be – off there, in the distance.
Whether it’s a backward looking “I wish I still could…” Or a forward looking “someday, I’m going to…”
It leaves our life – and God’s purpose for our life – for another day. One lost long ago and never to come again. Or one off in the future that may never get here. Which means that it comes at a price.
Where we get stuck looking off in the distance, it comes at the price of now. It comes at the price of discarding the only moment that God has given to us. The only moment that we ever own. This present one.
Which is why now, more than ever, we need to heed that voice of the Spirit. That impulse to live out God’s call for our lives where we are. Not waiting for the big moment when everything is just right. But in the small context of today.
In truth, that’s the only way God’s call for our lives ever can be lived.
Don’t pine for the past. Don’t wait for the future.
Use what God has given you for this day. To do what God is calling you to do. Now.
As St. Catherine of Siena put it, “To the servant of God every place is the right place, and every time is the right time.”

Our Lady of Good Counsel Feast Day: April 26
Our Lady of Good Counsel is the title given to the Blessed Virgin Mary after a miraculous painting. Tradition has it that during celebrations on the feast of St. Mark, in 1467, in Genazzano, Italy, a cloud descended on an unfinished wall of the church of Santa Maria, amid “sweet music.” When it dissipated an image of Our Lady appeared; 18” square, no thicker than an eggshell, suspended in the air. Many pilgrims visit the church including Popes UrbanVII, Pius IX, Leo XIII, Saints Aloysius Gonzaga, Alphonsus Liguori and John Bosco. Miracles continue to occur, even today.

1. can we agree that we can say that pills are often over-prescribed out of laziness due to doctor’s not wanting to deal with the root cause, AND some people genuinely need them and some health problems can’t just be ‘fixed’ by lifestyle changes?
2. ‘if you’re dependent upon a pill you’re a slave, instead be dependent upon never coming in contact with materials that make up 95% of daily life’
3. ‘I’ll send you a link to my favorite products!’ which are most likely made with the same ingredients/owned by the same corporations, it just says ‘natural’ on the tin and you get a kickback every time some poor sap obsessively buys it to ‘cure’ their husband’s cancer. hate. malice even
