man with black hat

the daily musings ...
of faith and culture, of life and love, of fun and games, of a song and dance man, who is keeping his day job.

"If your child is always buried in homework, she doesn't have much company. Most U.S. students in elementary through high school spend less than an hour studying most nights, a report released today says."

Raison D’Etre

  • “Our entire daily lives cannot be occupied with purely religious practices; all of us have to eat, and most of us have and want to do many other activities besides. So though we cannot always be religious in this sense, we can always be Catholic, that is, the round of our daily activities can be conducted in such a way as to express and be in harmony with our Faith. And [this] can involve more than avoiding sin and exercising virtue.”

    Thomas Storck,
    The Catholic Milieu
