  • Lent 2023, Day 11: Ascent. Requiescat in Pace.

    “It was surreal, writing an obituary, for my mom, who died of cancer, in a room full of patients, fighting cancer.”

  • Lent 2023, Day 9: On God’s (kind of) Green Earth

    Because too many of y’all need to drop your copy of “Left Behind” and pick up some trash.

  • Lent 2023, Day 8: We’re all in this together.

    But don’t worry, no celebrities will be singing “Imagine” in this post.

  • Lent 2023, Day 7: God and nature.

    Out of the mouths (or diaries) of babes.

  • Lent 2023, Day 6: TikTok Hates You.

    It’s getting late to give you up
    I took a sip from my devil’s cup
    Slowly, it’s taking over me

    Too high, can’t come down
    It’s in the air and it’s all around
    Can you feel me now?

    Poetry, candles, art, music.

  • Lent 2023, Day` 4: I almost died 9 years ago.

    So the doctor who couldn’t be bothered to help prevent my developing deadly blood clots died of… blood clots.

  • Lent 2023, Day 3: Stations of the Cross.

    Por la Vía Dolorosa, triste día en Jerusalén
    Los soldados le abrían paso a Jesús
    Mas la gente se acercaba
    Para ver al que llevaba aquella cruz

"... the awesomely gifted Alisha DeFreitas... tells her story of  her brush with the Culture of Death and her refusal to play the world’s game. I love that she gives two well-aimed upraised middle fingers: one to the abortion culture of the Left, and one to the Randian Makers vs. Takers class warriors of the Right. She’s one of my heros."

Mark Shea, author and blogger


"While reading your blog I often sense a certain amount of conviction on your behalf, which makes me wonder why isn’t everyone reading the blogs of a woman who actually “gets it.”

Don, at Minus The Bars


"A curious mix of the sacred and profane...too nice for a run of the mill blog? "

Joe, my brother, author of The Blog of Blogs


"Are you really bored or something?"

Joscelyne, my sister


"Pretty f****ing intense."

Reader Brooke Farmer, on this entry.


"A great outlet for such a prolific mind and an entertaining mix of spirituality and current events."
