Gotta find a way to shuck that competitive streak...

About Me
- mibi52/ The Rev. Dr. Mary Brennan Thorpe
- Richmond, VA, United States
- A second (actually fifth) career Episcopal priest, I am serving as Director of Transition Ministry in the Episcopal Diocese of Virginia. I help parishes find priests and priests find new calls.How did a RC convent girl with a Teamster shop-steward dad end up here? Married to Pastoral Husband, AKA PH, an ordained minister and full-time pastoral counselor. Three kids from the prior marriage: Strong Opinions, artistic 30 y.o. girl trying on the world for size, Stonemason, 32 y.o. guy working with his hands in the North Country, Litigator, highly verbal 34 y.o. with aspirations to be the next Michael Moore. Two stepsons, 4 step grandkids, a cat. Way too many books.Well, there are never too many books...
No, I didn't fall off.

91 sounds like a good reason to celebrate with a glass of (sacramental) wine!
I am also a seminarian and have felt guilty about my competetive tendenceies for two years...but is competetiveness necessarily a bad thing? Surely it can be addictive, and perfectionism seems almost clearly bad; but, couldn't the drive to excel be a gift from God that helps us serve God?
