Well, I just got back from weekend on retreat at the mercy center in Burlinghame. it is cool to note that they do have nature in california. Coming down here I was worried that it was all imported. I start classes tomorrow. Scary!! I have class from 8 til 12:30 and then i am free till thursday when i do it again. I will then have some 50 hrs of reading or the like. Pray for me. anyway, words of the semester are CLARITY, FREEDOM, INTIMACY, HONESTY, and AUTHENTICITY. ciao for now
