Now is the Time

I often think back on various points in history and think, "Wow, if I'd lived then it would have been a wonderful and rich time. That would have been a wonderful time to be alive because the meaning and purpose of life was so clear." 

Now is the time we're given. This is the period in humanities timeline that God chose to have us here. We are here for a reason. These are exciting times, and we have a clear purpose -- to recognize and choose the best good we possibly can as we plunge through each moment and each choice and interact with each person today.

As Catholic men, we have many and various roles. This blog will explore those roles, share my own thoughts and struggles with living them out, and provide a forum for exchanging ideas.

Among the roles I'll be exploring:
-- husband
-- father
-- wage earner
-- teacher (regardless of how you school you children)
-- spiritual leader
-- deacon
-- volunteer

Blessings,
Patrick
