Just who do you think you are, lady?
"I'm nobody! Who are you?I'm a 24 year old graduate student of English Literature. I have a passion for reading and writing, in tandem with a big mouth (though you'd never guess that when you first meet me). I have four younger siblings, a wonderful fiance, two dogs, and a penchant for Scottish accents, fairy tales, and baking. I overachieved in undergraduate by also majoring in Medieval History.
Are you nobody, too?
Then there's a pair of us — don't tell!
They'd banish us, you know."--Emily Dickinson
Oh, a wise guy, eh?
Far from it. 6+ years of college education in a public school (the University of North Florida) have yielded very little by way of wisdom. Besides, I'm a girl.
I'm a talking weed, you're a talking carrot--your point was?
My point, simply stated, is that I'm a strong writer, and I feel like it's time I do something with that for the glory of God. I'm also Catholic, a woman, and, thanks to a combination of homeschooling and college, prone to logic, so I'm in the unique position of being sensitive to moral/cultural issues like feminism, abortion, marriage, etc, and being able to comment clearly, if not insightfully, on them.
Let's just change our names to 'Why' and 'Bother'
I'm not a theologian. I'm not a scholar. "I'm just a girl, here in this room". Few people will read this blog; fewer will be touched or changed by it. But 1 Timothy 4:14-16 says
So I have to try. And, thankfully, I have faith that it is not entirely futile, for, afterall--"Do not neglect the gift you have, which was given you by prophetic utterance when the council of elders laid their hands upon you. Practice these duties, devote yourself to them, so that all may see your progress. Take heed to yourself and to your teaching; hold to that, for by so doing you will save both yourself and your hearers."
"If a thing is worth doing, it is worth doing badly."--G.K. Chesterton
I'm Nobody! Who are you?
Are you – Nobody – too?
Then there's a pair of us!
