Looking for the Way

I am starting another blog. I've been thinking about it for awhile, because I want to get into the habit of writing more. When you write something, you have to have complete thoughts -- something which doesn't always come easy. It requires quiet time, thinking, praying.

I've titled the blog "Looking for the Way" because we are. We're each looking for a way -- looking for a purpose, meaning, a reason to live. And, this makes sense, because we were created for something: to be in union with our Creator.

I was born and raised and still live in the Roman Catholic Church, and as I delve deeper into our faith, I realize just how much I have to learn. And, that's another reason why I've titled this blog "Looking for the Way." Back in the early, early church, the followers of Jesus didn't call themselves Christians yet. They simply said that they were followers of "the Way." And, I'm pretty sure they were remembering Jesus' words when He said, "I am the Way, the Truth, and the Life."

So, what I write here is a snapshot of what I have experienced on my journey in this life. I believe that things come across our path for a reason, and that we have an opportunity each day to learn more and grow more fully into who we were created to be.

So, come along as we look for the Way. And, tell me more about your journey, too!
