A Living Pencil

Solid joys, deep sorrows, aggressive hope

Well Come

Posted on July 17, 2013 by alivingpencil

I’m in the process of moving my blog, Magistra Mater, from Xanga to WordPress. I devour words, so I’m tickled that the word ‘word’ made it into the name of the platform. My Xanga posts from 2005 – 2013 have migrated. Glory! It’s such a relief to be able to revisit that season of my life.

Hey! I can change my blog name to something with a nicer mouth feel. A Living Pencil.

Mother Theresa is reported to have said, “I am a living pencil in the hand of a living God who is sending a love letter to the world.”

There is much to learn. That’s good: I’m always touting the joys of lifetime learning.

And a growing excitement is incubating about writing more regularly.

Well, come along with me! Welcome!
