Peek into the Confessional

March 26th, 2007 · 3 Comments · Confession, Conversation

Forward March

March 1st, 2007 · No Comments · Character, fragments

March is a pivotal time of year. The foreboding “Beware the Ides of March” is a phrase we might hear and not know the full significance; but anytime we are told to “beware” it switches on an almost involuntary reflex. I looked the Ides up in Wikipedia, because I almost never remember what it [...]
