THE TRIQUETRA OF LIFE: Wisdom, Wealth, and Wellness

I’ve added a brief update to an earlier essay, Our Messy, Ugly America, reflecting recent reporting on a sharp rise in requests for exorcism acknowledged by Catholic clergy worldwide. Drawing on Vatican-approved commentary, the update situates this development within the broader cultural concerns already explored in the essay — including family breakdown, fatherlessness, and spiritual dislocation.

The original article remains unchanged in substance; the update simply notes how subsequent events have brought renewed attention to issues once spoken of quietly, or not at all.
