Thank you for the compliment. That is where I "try" to live my life. Sometimes I succeed. Sometimes I fail. But in my case, I "hunger and thirst" for truth, as best I can find it out.
FWIW, I've only been RCC for a few years. I'm now 66 years old, born and raised Episcopalian (high church flavor) in South Louisiana. Married a a "cradler" RCC. Unchurched for forty years. Then the wife decided she needed to learn more about HER faith (she was catechized (badly) in the early "post-Vatican-II" era). So she started buying and reading books on what the RCC is "really" all about.
Now, I have what is probably the world's worst addiction...I am an omnivorous reader. A worse addiction than crack cocaine. I read anything and everything. So when she would finish a book, I would read it. Recall phrase above about "hunger and thirst". After much study, I realized that I had found TRUTH. So I immersed myself in the Tiber, and here I am. And the more I study, the more truth I find.
"Hey! Is that allowed on FR?"
Oh yes.....there are a number of us who try.
Thank you for this interesting snippet of your story. Very interesting! In time, I hope we learn more! Compliments to Mrs. Warthog.
