Holy Day of Obligation


For those of us who are Roman Catholic and practice our faith, yesterday was a Holy Day of Obligation.  It was the feast in our faith called "Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary".  Please know that I know folks of other faiths or no faith have a lot of differing opinions on those of us who are Catholic.  That is all fine and good, and I am fine with differing opinions... no problem.

But, what I can say for ME, is that attending Mass yesterday and thinking about what I was able to learn for myself related to this specific Holy Day for my faith, was helpful, useful, and emotionally centering for me.   I am glad I was able to go.

I appreciate all forms of comments on my writings. I find that I miss the sponteneity of coming to read them here when they were unmoderated. I believe I wrote less due to the moderation. I have decided to adopt limited moderation. Hopefully the prior problems with unfettered comments will not arise again. Please feel free to comment as you wish about the essays I write. I will maintain those comments that offer kind-hearted and gentle opinion... be it positive or negative. The opinions of your comments will, of course, need to have relevance to the post as well.
