A Nightcap with Godfather Paul


Barnaby read his Godfather's response to this evening's blog and said, "His message is so beautiful."

Godson messaged Godfather to ask if it was okay to
share what he'd written, and Godfather said yes:

'Again beautifully crafted B. You have your father's gift for simple observation, expressed in evocative accessible language. I feel greatly blessed that you sang Praise to the Holiest, and twice.

'Those boots have carried your Granny and you on journeys of discovery in the context of family and friendship. Leaving them behind is not discarding them, but letting them go, as we have to let things go in order to carry on our journeying. But those people that have blessed us on the way remain a blessing. End of sermon (why am I so boring?? Fr Stuart - do not take the opportunity to answer that).

Love the image of holding hands, I suspect your Dad and I would have held hands if we weren't pretending to be so macho.'
