The app for independent voices
The Catholic Church is both conservative and liberal, both ordered and open, both a builder of walls and a builder of bridges. To seize upon one side at the expense of the other is necessarily to misunderstand her.
Emily always answers questions so thoughtfully—apologies for putting a delicious photo of food in your timeline on Ash Wednesday!

Hey Friends, I’m here of Substack, and here is why I decided to leave MSNBC and go 100% independent with all my content.

🚨FAFO ALERT
Most readers on Substack don’t comment.
They don’t restack your notes.
But they read every word you write.
And one day, because of you, they’ll improve their life.
KEEP WRITING.
Why did I see that right after I posted my note which I imagined would be read and not receive any likes or comments? Reading my mind? I will definitely KEEP WRITING! I know someone is definitely reading!
Apparently in this new world of advanced technology, it's not just Substack!
I don't know if my writing will ever truly make any difference to others, but it sure makes me feel better to post here. I've only been attacked once on here, by a basement dwelling malcontent he was juvenile, and not intelligent. This happens on every post on fb, insta, and threads. This seems to be an intelligent crowd on here. Hope it stays this way.
Sounds like you know me pretty well.
Thanks to you I have learned about restacking. I didn't know about that feature. It's like retweeting. ❤️

Life isn't fair. It never was. It never will be. The sooner you accept this truth, the sooner you can stop fighting it.
Good things happen to bad people. Bad things happen to good people. Hard work doesn't always pay off. Doing the right thing doesn't guarantee rewards. When you stop expecting life to be fair, you free yourself.
Here's the truth: When you release your grip on how things "should" be, you can finally see things as they are. The less you expect, the more peace you find. The more you accept, the stronger you become.
Every single thing you do today is something that your 80 year old self will wish they could go back and do.
The good old days are happening right now.
Enjoy every single bit of it.
