"AND THE ANSWER IS...."

I needed to take a look at where I was headed with this site. So I backed off for awhile. Thought about how I would link, what I would write about.
I have decided to only link to positive sites. Too many of those I have been reading are very negative, angry and in some cases uncharitable. I have the option to not read these, of course, but I also have the obligation not to offer them as links.
It is in no way a statement on the quality of their messages, or the passion and sincerity of those persons. They are choosing to follow their hearts. Who am I to judge?
Consider it a change in direction.

I just think that the change will do me good.
You too, I hope.

Hi Tom,

I'm glad you still have the link to my blog up. I hope that it's a very charitable and welcoming place.

God Bless

Glad you decided not to quit.

I understand your point. Sometimes I find myself getting caught up in the negativity, the anger at some blogs. I've been tempted at times to respond in kind.

I've had to stop reading some.

Our faith is a positive and joyful one, and we should look for what's good. God certainly made many good things for us to appreciate. One of the greatest of these is each other.

i am glad to see i am still there, too, tom - you are a decent fellow with great morals and values.

the blogosphere, especially the Catholic portion of it, has been extremely disheartening lately. i am glad to find a nice respite from it all right here.

I, too, am pleased to still be on this list, though I wouldn't have claimed to qualify.
