I'm a cradle #Catholic. I did all the stuff (Baptism, Fist Communion, Confirmation) as a wee lad. I was born here all my life. When I was around four years old, the church kicked out my mom and, by extension, my family. I explored other faiths, #meditation, #yoga, #Buddhism, and all the things. I wanted to not convert to a religion or practice that I had not been born to or wasn't otherwise ancestrally connected. I explored Protestant fellowships but soon began seeking "the deeper things" back in the lives of saints. This led to a deep dive into the #EarlyChurch Fathers and early church history. Entering the #OrthodoxChurch, I lived in several monasteries and wandered around the US like the guy in Way of a Pilgrim. I was ultimately drawn to #Theosis and the #PrayerOfTheHeart, sometimes called the #JesusPrayer. That church became tedious as well. Long story short, decades later, a pandemic, and a few ends of the world here I am. I recently stumbled across a podcast called the #PopeFrancisGeneration. I'm intrigued. I am listening. Let's see where my current studies lead.

Advice to self: Know when to take a break and don't overdo. I'm done working for today. Let's get back to R&R.

Despite the attitudes of some:
Everyone is is part of the human race.
Everyone is equal.
Just as important, everyone has worth and can make valuable contributions to society
if, and when allowed.

Not providing mental health services, unnecessary institutionalization and a "buck" an hour for wages? This is nothing short of exploitation and utterly deplorable.
Missourians with Invisible Disabilities are treated as less than human. THEY ARE NOT!
Show me change in the "show me" state!
