Sometimes I want to find a post published on the blog Segullah, and there isn't an easy way for me to search for posts by authors. I must note that there are several writers who are more gifted than I am.
Many of the women who write for Segullah write with greater lyricism, insight, and spirit.
Nevertheless, sometimes I want to reread one of my posts there (to witness to my own better angels). I often give myself great advice; now if I would only follow it consistently.
Segullah is a faith-based blog where women often write in a way that blends details from their daily lives with quotes or allusions to scriptures and other devotional writing as well to references to literature and culture--high culture and low culture.
So a Segullah post may refer to Jesus, Jane Austin, burnt cookies, and Lisa Simpson.
My favorite 2020 post was the one published in October.
