IF YOU’RE AN EMAIL SUBSCRIBER TO THIS BLOG: Take note of changes

 

If you receive blog posts of SPIRITUAL MEMOIRS 101 by email because you’ve subscribed as a Follower, please note:

 

As of July 1, you might not receive any more blog posts. Blogger’s information states that maybe some people will continue to receive them, but their communications and explanations are sketchy at best.

 

If you’d like to keep up with SM 101 blog postsand I hope you do!—you have a couple of options.

 

 

I’m sorry for the inconvenience. Maybe Blogger will offer another way to receive posts by email and if so, I’ll let you know.

 

In the meantime, please help me

spread the news about

Spiritual Memoirs 101.

 

Why?

Because your stories and mine are important.

 

Henri Nouwen says, “Writing can . . . be good for others who might read what we write. Quite often a difficult, painful, or frustrating [event] can be ‘redeemed’ by writing about it. . . . Then writing can become lifesaving for us and sometimes for others, too.”

 

Nouwen continues, “Each human being is unique. . . and nobody has lived what we have lived. . . . What we have lived, we have lived not just for ourselves but for others as well. Writing can . . . make our lives available . . . to others. We have to trust that our stories deserve to be told.” (Henri Nouwen, Bread for the Journey)
