Wow.

That was my reaction when I scanned one of the comments about my homily from this Sunday and discovered that it was from a woman I’d mentioned, Erin Henderson. You just never know who will visit The Bench.

Turns out, she has her own blog about her remarkable family. Take a look at “Full House, Full Hands, Full Hearts”.

I especially like this terrific quote:

“The highest courage is to dare to be yourself in the face of adversity, choosing right over wrong, ethics over convenience, and truth over popularity. These are the choices that measure your life. Travel the path of integrity without looking back, for there is never a wrong time to do the right thing.”
