Thank you. He didn’t answer at the time I was supposed to call, and didn’t call or text me back. That’s very much not like him.

I’m worried again.

I hate so many of the effects this virus has had.

Thank you all so much - he is doing better and was able to talk on the phone.

Glory to God!

Now I want to not burden him with the degree to which I’ve been struggling - I certainly don’t want him feeling badly about being unavailable.

And tbh it’s been a long slide going far back to the virus shutting down the Churches, me being sick for a long time (probably with corona ironically), and trying to redirect my life to a new career, as well as multiple health issues. If anything I’m probably doing a bit better - at least as far as being very humbled by my limitations.

His advice when I shared just some basic comments was to remember God loves us and isn’t angry needing to be placated.

Somehow I have to get back into SOME kind of Orthodox rhythm. I feel like I’m starting from the very very beginning - worse in fact.

Worse except that for the fact that I had tremendous spiritual pride when I first started exploring Orthodoxy. I am pretty much disillusioned of thoughts of spiritual grandeur by now. ^_^

Sorry for the ramble. Thanks again SO VERY MUCH for prayers!!!

I never noticed any sense of boastful pride in your posts.
