  • i met with Bishop Councell today, at his request.  We decided that i should defer my application to seminary for (still) another year, until 2006/2007.  this will give us an opportunity to pay down debt. 


    i HATE being able to see all the sides of a situation.  right now all i want is to sit on the floor, pound my heels, and cry.  but the adult in me recognizes that it would not be fair to have a priest leave seminary with crushing (perhaps crippling debt), especially when the priest would be given fiduciary responsibility (trusted to handle $$)... plus Bishop Councell knows that it is a hard enough strain on a marriage just being a priest, let alone an indebted one...


    i hear all that. i know all that.  and the bishop was very very very careful to stress that he truly believes i have a true calling.  so why do i feel like crying for a week?


    <sigh>
