I was looking up Mother Teresa’s feast day last September, wondering if it was that day or the day before. When I typed “mother,” somehow the URL for my blog came up in the search bar, even though I hadn’t been writing on it for a few years, having given up on the tortured vacillations about how much I should reveal of myself on the Internet. I would convince myself it was reasonable to reveal some, but soon talk myself back into thinking it was pretentious and self-indulgent. But maybe Mother Teresa wanted to tell me it is humility and a gift of self to risk rejection for the sake of speaking words of life, maybe even an impulse of the Holy Spirit.
