Bloggy wanderings

Jump to Comments

Writing as Jo(e) is a lovely and deservedly popular blog that I’ve just discovered. Her account of a trip to the mountains with her women friends make me want a similar experience, as does this entry about her regular trips to a monastery .

Penguin Unearthed, an Australian blogger, watched the same documentary on childhood that I did last week, and has some interesting thoughts on varieties of work-life balance within workplaces.

Possible Water writes about the Jesuit practice of examen, which is also the basis of the blog Living on Both Ends - it sounds like a lovely practice , and something I would like to adopt, in some form.

The Urban Abbess writes a beautiful blog centered around religion and her family.

Six Ten Pine, a hilarious and gifted writer, has resurfaced (hoorah!) at Secondhand Gods, and has just moved into a new house (and therefore a new neighbourhood).

Persephone’s Box is a really fabulous feminist blog about all sorts of interesting things - her thoughts on virginity, for example, and a rite of passage she created for her daughter.

  • Thanks for the recommendations, Cee. Have a nice weekend. :)

  • I watched that documentary also. I was going to write in my blog about how sad I felt on seeing the woman who had the disabled child. She had such an amazing attitude and it really inspired me to remember what it is important in the world.

  • Thanks for the link, Cee. Look forward to reading more of your blog.

  • You’re welcome, Heather Anne :-)

    I felt quite depressed by the family with the disabled child, Be-Zen, but that woman was inspirational, especially coping with her sight problems as well.

    You’re welcome, Jennifer :-)

  • Thank you so much for the reference…I really appreciate it and it is always humbling when someone whose work you respect seems to enjoy your own, too!

    Thanks again.

  • Oh, you’re very welcome Telfair - thank you for sharing your writing :-)

  • Thanks for the link!

  • You’re welcome Sage! Thanks for making me think :-)
