sometimes i wonder how many versions of myself i’ve outgrown without even noticing. i look back at old photos and remember the thoughts i used to carry, the dreams i thought would save me. it’s strange how you can live inside yourself every day and still not realize you’re evolving. it’s only when you look back that you realize how far you’ve come, how many lives you’ve already lived in the same skin.
i’m in my 20s and i’m allowed to start over
i’m in my 30s and i’m allowed to start over
i’m in my 40s and i’m allowed to start over
i’m in my 50s and i’m allowed to start over
as long as i’m breathing, it’s not too late to begin again

Sometimes, when he fails badly enough, Trump can be forced to do the thing he says he never does: back down.
Today is just one more turn on the roller coaster - but it is more evidence of why we can't give up or let up.

I’m going to say something that shouldn’t be controversial but will be. If you are a Christian, you can support border control and immigration being legal vs illegal. You CANNOT celebrate deportations and get off on the cruelty, and be a real Christ follower. Period
The fact that the ERA has not been fully ratified to date is testament to the patriarchal condemnation of women and our LGBTQ kin to second class citizenry.
Totes, Rowshan. And the fact is that the Catholic bishops going apes*t right now about the possibility that ERA could actually be ratified should be a red flag.
Not just a red flag, but also a disgrace to all of the Catholics who truly care about other people—all other people.
In other words, all Catholics who actually try to follow the teachings of Jesus Christ. Makes one wonder what Bible the bishops are reading.
They'e reading the version of the Bible they wrote for Catholics, and the Baltimore Catechism. How do you think they're able to reconcile acting so antithetical to the words of the historical Jesus?
The problem is that only one of those is Scripture and not even all of the Douay-Rheims Bible was inspired. Most of it is historical accounts, just like all the others.
The "creation stories" of almost all of the world's faith traditions' sacred texts are, all by themselves, articles of faith that the "stories" told are even historical accounts. And all claim to have been "divinely inspired" in one form or another.
Of course they do, what better backup can one have than to say God told me?
