ODD Catholic priest

Another likely "false start" by a priest suffering from chronic Imposter Syndrome. Maybe something is different this time. Maybe not. I think perhaps I have stopped writing this thing to be read. I am so concerned about appearances, how I will be seen by others. Like they say in the rooms, however, "What other people think about me is none of my business." The Independent Catholic Church I was serving has pretty much gone under; we had no physical home & the only people showing up for remote Mass was clergy. I have been pretty much thriving at Gathering of Light as an interspiritual minister & assistant dean. 

But as much as I would like to simply dismiss it (and Lord knows I have tried to do this for decades), I am Catholic. I am certainly an ODD Catholic. A Folk Catholic. A Catholic Witch even. But Catholic is the commonality and for the sake of sanity, I think it is time that I acknowledged that it's simply the language of my spirituality. So Let us see where this goes THIS time. 

There's a freedom knowing I don't have readers anymore - makes it easier!
