I find new Catholic blogs all the time.

Recently, thanks to a link I followed on a bit of a whim in a chance spare moment (wish I could remember where…either The Anchoress or Happy Catholic, I think), I have found what might just be my favorite of them all.

Maybe it’s because I’ve taken to pretending like I should avoid the question of Why, because, especially in situations dealing with people, there’s usually just no good answer.  Better to avoid Why questions, therefore, than to be left with an answer more frustrating than the question.

Except…

Except that I’m a Why Person.  You know the sort.  I ask Why? before I even realize what I’m doing.  (Dratted extroverted tendencies, begone!)  I ask Why? when I’m half-asleep or wide awake, to my four-year-old and my husband, in the morning and at night.

I just can’t. help. it.

(Well, I suppose I could.  But that discussion sort of defeats the point of this post!)

So my delight in this new blog I’ve found is two-fold.  First, here’s a fellow convert who’s putting words to what I’ve been chewing on for at least eight years.  Second, here’s a guy who’s asking Why, again and again and again.

It’s the purpose of his blog.

*happy sigh*

So, if you haven’t checked it out, let me point you there.  It’s a new little addition to the Catholic blogosphere called Why Am I Catholic?, written by Webster Bull.

I’ve gone through and read most of his archives too.  Yes, it’s that good.

I’ll also be starting my own series of answers to this question this week.  How’s that for being inspired?  I feel as though I should write a thank you to Mr. Webster Bull.  Maybe that’s what this post is…a feeble attempt at showing my gratitude for his work.
