I am over at Becky Eldredge’s blog this week talking about my experience with the First Principle and Foundation in her new series Ignatius and Me.
I remember the first time I heard the First Principle and Foundation. It was my first year of teaching and for some reason, the “we should not fix our desires on health or sickness” line above all the rest really stuck out to me at that moment. At the time, I was kind of an… over-reactor. I was always getting sick and instead of just assuming I had a cold – I would jump straight online to WebMD and figure out what my symptoms were really saying. In fact, that’s how I bonded with my first fellow new teacher.

Thanks for sharing your wisdom on Becky’s blog. Hope to meet you someday; I’m in Baton Rouge, friend of Becky’s.
Thanks for your thoughts! I used to live in Baton Rouge a long time ago. Thanks for reading!
