The wanderings of a stay at home father. As Tim Lilburn explains, haecceitas is the idea that "the thisness of a thing is unknowable, but there. It's the highest expression of the thing, but it can't be known with precision or named." This blog will contain reflections on parenthood, religion, and whatever I find of interest. I hope the spirit of haecceitas colors my words (and life).
