Because it's Earth Day and because I have a lot on my plate, I'm going to keep this week's link love really short. Instead of reading on your computer, go outside! ENJOY EARTH!
Have a great weekend!
My Writing
Two years ago:
- Finding Community (Spiritual Uprising Blog): This piece reflects over my life with the Sisters of Providence. Although I'm far away now, they are still in my heart and mind daily.
- Jayber Crow by Wendell Berry (Popery, Pens, and Paperbacks): I can't believe it's been only two years since I first read Jayber Crow. It's like a prayer, a retreat, a meditation. I love Wendell Berry.
What I read this week:
Pens/Pencils/Stationery:
Containing the Chaos of Pen Addiction: Pen Cases and Boxes (Pen Addict): As I struggle to find organization strategies for my stationery in my tiny apartment, I am glad that I am at least a bit more organized than this!
Life in General:
A letter to my daughter with Down syndrome on her wedding day. (UP Worthy): This is a sweet letter.
Tough and Awkward Topics:
Date Night: It’s Nicer Than Divorce (Scary Mommy): While I would never give marriage advice (as I'm not married), I think this is an important thing to note.
Why Did 'Doctor Strange' and 'Ghost in the Shell' Whitewash Their Asian Characters? (The Hollywood Reporter): This makes no sense.
To Make You Laugh:
22 Hilarious Tweets About Babies (Buzz Feed): I love babies, but some of these I totally get.
Parenting:
Attachment Parenting Out Of Sheer Laziness (Scary Mommy): A lot of my friends use wraps and I have to say, I think this is pretty darn accurate.
