The prodigal blogger returns.
Hello, remember me? The bloke who put up his alleged final posting (header reading, Ave atque vale) only a few months ago. Obviously, it was not to be.

An excerpt: I was about to begin my doctrinal studies at King’s College, and it was dark when I arrived at our Capuchin friary in the borough of Peckham in southeast London. When I was shown my room, I immediately looked out the window to see my viewContinue reading ““Take Courage””
