I just thought I'd say hi. Orthodoxy is always somewhere in my mind, and a lot of my current views on things are largely influenced by Orthodoxy still. I lurk here at least once a week, I just never have anything worthwhile to post.

But I'm tired of always lurking and wanted to check in. :) :wave:

I'm glad you made a landing. I hope all is well.

Awww, you all have made my heart warm. :)

I'm doing pretty well! Establishing a life on my own - an apartment, a job, and school still. Doing the whole growing up thing. Realizing I know a lot less than I thought I did. :p

Been to church twice recently. One of my good friends I met years ago at OCF on UT campus got married recently at St. Anne's, followed by yet another good friend this past weekend. :) There's a lovely new iconostasis there!

I am so grateful that you have come back to some church services.
I am praying that you will keep the Holy Faith.

Warmth of heart is a sign of the Holy Spirit at work. :thumbsup:

Yep, every ten years I look back on what I was so CERTAIN I knew and conclude that I was, without fail, a blithering idiot! ;)
