TUESDAY QUOTE OF THE WEEK CDXX

FINDING TRUTH WHEREVER IT MAY BE FOUND:  "But the story of the golden calf also reminds us that without rules we quickly become slaves to our own passions - and there's nothing freeing about that."  Norman Doidge in "12 Rules for Life"

QUOTE II:  ". . . left to our own untutored judgement, we are quick to aim low and worship qualities that are beneath us."  same source

IN OTHER NEWS:

THANK YOU! to the anonymous reader who reminded me that Adam's Ale is celebrating 
TWELVE YEARS!  
(Easy to remember because my dog Sebastian is the same age.)

Here is my annual thanks to Dawn Eden who chided me with, "What?!  You don't have a blog?  Shame on you!" Thus beginning my twelve year run with you.

Here are some quick details (interesting to nobody perhaps but me):
In twelve years there have 2,642 posts.  
The all time most read post was "How Come I Don't Remember?"  HERE
The UNITED STATES has the largest number of readers followed by
RUSSIAN, GERMANY, CHINA, and FRANCE
(although I do know I have some very loyal readers in Rome and Slovenia)
TOTAL PAGE VIEWS: 926,549
THANK YOU to the 75 of you who are followers.

Want to see from where Adam's Ale is sent out?  Here is a great 5 minute video:

What a lovely video of the school, Father! St. Seb's is very lucky to have you and Fr. Simone and all the others who work so hard at the parish. You are all good neighbors to us at St. Bernard. God bless and protect all of you at St. Sebastian!

Sue, ofs
