Musings about my life, faith, and the God that created, redeems, and sanctifies me.
About Me
- Katie
- I am a junior at Creighton University in Omaha, NE. I really like it there. The campus is small and it feels like we are all just one big family. I am a theology/secondary education major and I am discerning a career in youth ministry.

What a week it's been...
and yet still another to finals! Everything has been so hectic, and it really doesn't look like it is getting any better. But, for my theology class we are reading this book called The Way to Love by Antony de Mello. I really am enjoying the book. He talks about how you must rid yourself of attachments before you can be truly happy. Notice, you do not have to get rid of the people in your life or those things you enjoy, just the attachment to the person or object. You must recognize and say to yourself that you will be happy without this person or object. Even after a loved one dies and you miss them terribly, you do go on with your life. You continue to love and be the person you are. Your happiness did not rely solely on that person. I like that.
