Great to discover your blog (via your comment about Diogenes). Should have found it 24 hours ago ! (I had to help my teenage son with a speech he was giving at his (Carmelite-run) school about Titus Brandsma.)
Dear Sir,
Thank you very much for visiting and for leaving a "calling card." Hope you enjoy it, and I'll look forward to hearing what you may have to say.
shalom,

Oops I feel disloyal to St. Therese of Lisieux. She's one who should be on my list too.
It must be wonderful to be on someones 'admire list'.
I especially like how husband's and wives have listed their spouse in almost all instances that I have seen so far, somewhere above no.7!
God Bless.
