1. For the Anawim, a collection of readers or listeners who fit the profile of the Old Testament concept of the “poor ones of God,” I want to offer all of my writings (1,250 blogs) and books (67 so far). To those who have fallen through the cracks of life and may not even realize they are held hostage to their misconception of Jesus’ way or how to go about being an adopted son or daughter of the Father. We are all one of these. We can choose not to be held hostage by the limitations of our humanity.
- The poor in spirit.
- Those who are seeking a God worth living for.
- Those who have left the Church because clergy and members are corrupt, only to realize we are all corrupt.
- Those who are homeless and lack a spiritual home.
- Those who are homeless because they left the Catholic Church but don’t have anything to replace it.
- Those whom the State incarcerates.
- Those who incarcerate themselves deliberately to hide from themselves.
- Those who think that there is no way back to the Catholic Church or don’t know where to begin.
- Those who are young or old, but are all caught in the trap of boredom with religion, without ever trying to grow deeper.
- Those who have no idea that the key to human evolution is moving to the next step, and don’t have a clue how to do it.
- Those who have lost the most precious of all treasures, those Jesus gave us, and don’t know how to find them again.
- Those who are elderly and, like St. John says in Chapter 21, “are led around by others where they don’t want to go,” or those in nursing homes without hope of anyone paying attention to them.
- Those who consider God a false premise and cannot be part of anyone’s greater worldview.
- Those who are atheists or agnostics but do not have anything to offer, given that there is no God. So, there is no God; what is there that takes its place? Who has that truth? Who sets boundaries of good or evil?
- Those who have been told that they are going to die of cancer or have had a stroke, and suffer a condition they can’t control.
- Those Catholics who go to Church faithfully but have not dug deeper for the heavenly gold in the upper room of their inner self.
- For youth who are seduced by the allure of the world and find that it is cotton candy and doesn’t make them happy and fulfilled, while Jesus, the alternative, only offers the cross, a way that may cause struggle, work, and an abandonment of self.
- For all women who have not evolved to that deepest level of their humanity, to experience the confounding love of Christ by just knowing how to wait.
- For all men and women who have no idea of the thrill and joy that comes from choosing to abandon the false self to put on Jesus in silence and solitude.
- For all who have restless hearts because they do not rest in Christ.
- For military soldiers and their families who must endure separation.
- For those who are mentally and spiritually divorced but legally married.
- For those caught in the “dead bed” syndrome.
As part of my inheritance, I have given you everything of value that I have in writing and insights, if you fit the above (I do). I share with you whatever thoughts I have, not that you have to believe anything, but that I have been nailed to that “Tree of Woe” and discovered at 85 how to dig for heavenly gold right under my feet. I have come through cardiac arrest (Widowmaker) twice (2007 and 2025). I am in remission from CLL cancer (2012). I have a pacemaker and five wonderful physicians who follow me.
2. I offer all of this free of charge for both books (ebooks) and the new blog site for those who subscribe. I do ask a free-will widow’s mite offering of 10.00 per year, if the reader wishes to share in this direction. I don’t charge money for what Christ died on the cross. I am all alone in this attempt to bring a smile or a light to those who think no one cares. I want you to join me, not by joining any organization but by taking all of this into the upper room of your inner self (Matthew 6:5) and be present to the umbilical cord from God to you and me, made present by Jesus. Read what the Holy Spirit has dictated and Do What He Tells You. Be Jesus to those around you. Blessings.
3. My vision is to have this website be a simple, one-stop-shop resource for the elderly and the home-bound seniors to find it easier to pray from their upper room. Use this site with me by praying, reading, listening, looking, and learning. I follow the Holy Spirit, who gives me energy to follow the Catholic Church, which is the guardian of the umbilical cord of divine energy, Jesus, the Son of God, Savior, to the Father; all of this so I can fulfill what my human nature intended by the being aware of the growth of all that is in complexity and consciousness to Omega (Teilhard de Chardin).
Praise be to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit, now and forever. The God who is, who was, and who will be at the end of the ages. –Cistercian doxology.
