Hi! I’m Catharine. I started this blog in 2020 because I was trying to find my voice. I had attended a church for years that taught me to be silent, small, and submissive, and it was very scary to ignore some of those teachings. When I saw Christians embracing Trumpism, I felt like I needed to do something to be part of the resistance.

Since then, I’ve had a lot of things change about me. I don’t know if I should be considered a “Christian” anymore or not. I’ve started to swear a bit. I’ve gotten more comfortable with certain types of jokes.

I’ve started to become more authentic, is what it really is. Anyway.
I love writing, and I like traditional blogging, even though it’s not really that common anymore. It’s just fun, I feel like. I like reading other peoples’ blogs. It’s kind of like entering into their world, for a while.

Thanks for being here.

As far as core beliefs, what you’ll find is this: I believe that there is goodness in the heart of every single person, I have hope for the future of humanity, and I think we can accomplish a great deal when we come together, and that we CAN come together. We CAN come together. I know that sounds a bit cheesy or cliché but.. people are disillusioned about that right now in my country (the US), and anyway. That is a core belief. Because I know what it is to be conservative (I voted for Devin Nunes!!!!! 😳), and I know what it is to be liberal. There is a whole lot of common ground to be found.

I blog about very random things. My life, my kids, hobbies, my favorite recipes, reflections on life. Life with latex allergy and Mast Cell Activation Syndrome (MCAS). My cat.

I hope that wherever you are in life, that you’ll take a moment to know that you matter. Even in what might seem like a small way.

Thanks for reading. You can connect with me on socials if you want! I also occasionally send out emails (not for every post…it’s more of a rare special thing) if you’d like to subscribe!

(I also created a Monty Python themed suscription page if you’d rather see that version, here 🤓).
