Joy at Work š
June 13, 2025I read Marie Kondoās most famous book back in 2019, and although Iām not sure how much of it I can remember, the idea of something āsparking joyā stays with me. I also still fold my clothes the KonMari way.
I picked up this book earlier this year on my quest to read more books to help me improve at work. It was fine, but fell mostly flat. I thought about quitting early, but I didnāt.
It was an okay read, and thereās plenty of ways you can spark joy at work, but if you read the original book, you could save yourself some time and just KonMari, but at work.

You called, you shouted, and you broke through my deafness. You flashed, you shone, and you dispelled my blindness. You breathed your fragrance on me; I drew in breath and now I pant for you. I have tasted you, now I hunger and thirst for more.

June 9, 2025Let the Fire Fall - Catholic Husband
In this locked, hidden place, fire burst through. Like the episode right after Easter, the Apostles cowered and God entered. God with them, and no longer restrained in their belief, they spread out to the corners of the known world and experienced every grace, challenge, and persecution that is evangelization. The fire of the Holy Spirit cleared out the fear and old ways of their prior life. They were sent into the world, standing in truth, and confident in their training.

May 19, 2025We need the perfect plan, the perfect setup, the perfect time. False starts abound as we tee up our āReady, setā¦ā moments. Whiffing leaves us demoralized, or just the distractions of life carry us off on to some bigger, better thing.

It’s a daily challenge to stay focused at my desk with children streaming through my office. But it is cute how Veronica hovers around. She filters in and out through the day, bringing with her different activities to enjoy on the floor or on my couch
