After reading an article on Catholic Online about the Church’s Social Teaching, I feel what one might call a certain passion. The article, by Deacon Keith Fournier, attested that “living involves the entirety of the human experience. That includes the social dimension of life. We live in the human community, in society,” and that we must participate actively within it, with the guidance of our inner moral compass of conscience. Conscience, which gradually develops and forms through the catalysis of principles.

It is now, at this very moment, that I feel a passion and direction. I feel compelled to investigate, to write, to speak, to seek… What am I seeking? I’m seeking truth and clarity amid distortion and confusion. I’m seeking to understand. I’m seeking faith and reason. I don’t know how to describe the feeling- once again, language seems to escape me. After researching so many issues (many of which are under-reported) that either directly or indirectly affect every person on this pale blue dot suspended in a sunbeam, my conscience compels me to only search further… to ask more questions, to seek for more answers. Is this passion only temporary? I sincerely hope not.
