Out of My Catholic Mind





Around and around my mind:

Ideas 

Words 

God? 

Oh yes!

Thoughts:

Impossible to stop them 

Swirling around and around my mind.

Can they be set loose? 

Out of my mind? 

Shared?

Thoughts into words. 

Words into stories. 

Stories into posts. 

Ideas flowing out. 

Who knows what will appear? 

Out of my Catholic mind. 

Catholic? 

You’re out of your mind. 

Crazy! 

How can you think that? 

Do that? 

Say that? 

Write that? 

Out of my mind? 

Yes! 

Do you mind 

If I’m… 

Out of My Catholic Mind?

    1. Kelly,

      I remember the first commenter on my last blog. I was so excited to see someone had stopped by. Then I clicked on something by mistake and I lost the whole post and, of course, the comment as well, and I was so sad! Hopefully, I won't do that again. I think I wrote the first comment on Uglemor's blog. That is special for me. Thank you for stopping by so soon after I published this post and for your encouraging comment.

    1. Faith,

      I love Catholic conversations too. And now I have a blog with 'Catholic' in its name I can do that whenever I feel like it! I feel encouraged. Thank you!

    1. Vicky,

      It's good to see you back in the blogosphere! I will probably do a bit of blog design changing, but for the moment, I'm happy. My blog is up and running and I'm glad to hear it looks okay! Thank you for your comment. xxx

  6. Returning home from our annual pilgrimage, I discover your new blog. Exciting. I'm happy to hear what comes out of your catholic mind. Hopefully an explanation of the header will be among those things.

    1. Uglemor,

      I hope you enjoyed your pilgrimage. I bet you did! A new venture is always exciting. I'm looking forward to sharing it with you.

      The picture is of a Ferris wheel. I imagine it going around and around like the words in my mind! The image will probably change when I find something better, but it will do for now. Thank you for commenting on my very first post!

    1. Nancy,

      I'm glad you like the title. I love how it can mean different things. I spent a sleepless night thinking about blog titles and this is the one I ended up with. (Title after title kept going around and around my mind. It nearly drove me crazy!) Thank you so much for your enthusiasm!

    1. Patricia,

      Oh yes, I have a conversation story! I bet there's lots of other people who have a good one to tell too. I will definitely share mine. Thank you for asking!

      A retreat for early risers? Oh my, that sounds difficult for night owls. Enjoy your sleep! xxx

    1. Cynthia,

      You elevated my few words to the high status of a poem! That makes me smile. Thank you! (One day I hope to learn how to write real poetry like you.) Thank you so much for your encouragement. God bless you!
