I have come to fall in love with teaching in Catholic schools. What are YOU in love with?...

"Nothing is more practical than finding God, that is, than falling in love in a quite absolute, final way. What you are in love with, what seizes your imagination, will affect everything. It will decide what will get you out of bed in the morning, what you will do with your evenings, how you will spend your weekends, what you read, who you know, what breaks your heart, and what amazes you with joy and gratitude. Fall in love, stay in love, and it will decide everything." - Pedro Arrupe

Suddenly Long Distance

"Dating in the Time of COVID"
Poem of the Day - 4/19/20
Audio Version of Today's Poem

Phone calls
Texts
Emails
FaceTime

Suddenly, a relationship
With someone in my same city
Has turned long-distance

We had no idea this would happen -
If we did, there's not much
We could have done differently
Except maybe to have kissed
Goodbye
For a few moments longer

It's a challenge we didn't bargain for
But we're determined
To try and make it work
What else can we do?

It's dating
In the time of COVID
