Unacceptable

A few months ago, a priest somewhere in New England committed suicide.  Either the homily or the eulogy was posted on The Deacon's Bench. This line has stuck with me

"...had come to believe the lie that he was not accepted because he was unacceptable.”


I think about this line a great deal.  I wonder at what point the lie becomes truth.  I look at my life and I wonder what has gone wrong.  I am the only constant.

Sorry I'm so maudlin this morning.  Reality is rearing it's ugly head.
