I have not written in a while. No reason! But I thought a change is as good as a holiday so …

I have changed the name of the blog to my mostly anxiety driven life – or my MAD life.

I have also set up a podcast with the same name – go and follow. I think I have learned enough from the podcasts via WordPress that I can now graduate to some real hosting.

I have returned to reading Merton’s journals. They always seem to connect with me on a very basic level. They are human! Like with Kierkegaard, I wish I could have met him and had a cup of tea and a chat.

And I am sick – I have an infection that has required antibiotics. I am not a good patient.

But the biggest change is that we have gone back to the Anglican Church. We have been to the local parish for the last three weeks. It is a complete change from everything in our past but somehow it fits. The Vicar is extremely kind and loving – she remembered all our children’s names after one week! The people are “Anglican” – diverse but human. To contrast that the senior pastor at the megachurch we were attending ones got the name of a person who was dying wrong during the announcements.

Not sure if that helps anything or anyone.
