Learning Brooklyn

I wrote this post back in December.   Now, I am really acting on what I wrote.  I've started reading more online articles about Brooklyn, especially the part of Brooklyn where I was born.

This is a wonderful source of information, some of which I'll be sharing here from time to time.

And, in about a week, I plan to order this book.

Headaches

Headaches.   NOT a pleasant topic, although, when I got my VERY FIRST headache, I was actually pleased and proud.  It seemed like such a GROWN-UP thing to have!

But now I'm going to get serious.  Now, when I have a headache, I try to remember to offer it up, and to unite it with the incomparably worse pain Our Lord suffered at the Crowning With Thorns.

Compared to that, a headache is like a pat on the head!
