First Sunday in Advent
December 1, 2024
Fr. Richard G. Cipolla
I knew that morning that I had forgotten something important. I had the idea that I misplaced something. I checked my phone, my ipad, no they were there, I who insisted that I would never have these devices now wedded to them as if they contained my life. My car keys, house keys, all there. But there was this stubborn thought, this feeling that I had misplaced something important. If I could remember what it was I needed to remember I could look for it. But I have done this before: I have gone to the pantry to get something to add to what I was cooking and then forgot what it was I had to get. But it always came back.
