Dear Reader,
Thank you for visiting my page. I hope you find something interesting which can add to your life in some way. A brief introduction for those who either don’t know me or are visiting for the first time. I’m a man in my early thirties from Ireland. I spent the best part of my twenties in seminary, discerning a calling to Priesthood. Just as COVID 19 began to appear in Europe, I decided to take a step back from my progression towards ordination. Leaving seminary was a difficult choice to make, but I thought it the best one, feeling I had more to learn in life. Since then, I have worked on farms in order to pay my bills.
My main concern in life is to live a good, holy life, because I believe this is the way to happiness, in this life and the next. Needless to say, I fall far short of my target of goodness and holiness. But with the mercy of God, so much is possible. So much.
It has been a while since I’ve posted anything, perhaps three years. I have wanted to get back to blogging for a while, as there is so much happening in the world now. I will largely offer the perspective of a Catholic in my posts, whatever I happen to write on. I have a broad range of interests but I only consider myself well informed when it comes to theology and philosophy. As I’ve said, hopefully I can offer you something. Thanks for reading.
God bless you.
Tony.
I love to travel as well and yet I do enjoy my quiet time at home and my routine. It’s odd to think about. Very nice meeting you!
Yes, it’s quite a paradox, really! Thanks for stopping by, nice to meet you too. 🙂
You have inspired me. My pen is itching to write about my visit to the Holy Land. Coming soon if the Lord allows my pen to start writing.

I’m glad I could be of some help, Sue. I look forward to reading your post 🙂 Have you heard of the Camino the Santiago? I wrote an article on it a few weeks back called ‘The Way.’ It may interest you.
No I haven’t but I’ll try to get to your article about it. I was so inspired I was up until midnight writing, “Slow down pen!” Hope you enjoy it. 🙂
Lovely blog and insightful articles. I glad to meet you AJ and draw inspiration from your thoughts.
Cheers 🙂
Thanks very much Dilip, that’s very kind of you 🙂 Your own blog is a wealth of wisdom 🙂
It is a pleasure to meet you.
Thank you, you too! Looking forward to more of your history. Tony.
Thank you. I’m certain I’ll enjoy your site as well.
