When Charlotte Riggle was growing up, her family moved frequently. She never knew what to say when people asked where she was from. Did they want to know where she was born? Where she had lived most recently? Where she had lived the longest?

She hasn't moved as often as an adult, so those questions are now easier to answer. She was born in Oxford, Mississippi. She's currently living in the Pacific Northwest, between Seattle and Mount Rainier. She's lived here longer than she's lived anywhere.

Her children are mostly grown now. She and her husband share a charming old house full of books and music, laughter and joy. ...more

Disability, saints, and the need to feel seen

This post about saints with disabilities is based on a presentation I gave to parents and clergy at the St. Nicholas program of the Ukrainian Orthodox Church in June 2023. The St. Nicholas program is a camping experience for children with disabilities and their families.

What does it mean to feel seen? Have you ever had a time when you were reading a book, or you saw a meme on Social Media, an

Charlotte’s Quotes

“There was a story going around about the Special Olympics. For the hundred-yard dash, there were nine contestants, all of them so-called physically or mentally disabled. All nine of them assembled at the starting line and, at the sound of the gun, they took off. But one little boy didn't get very far. He stumbled and fell and hurt his knee and began to cry. The other eight children heard the boy crying. They slowed down, turned around, and ran back to him--every one of them ran back to him. The little boy got up, and he and the rest of the runners linked their arms together and joyfully walked to the finish line.
They all finished the race at the same time. And when they did, everyone in the stadium stood up and clapped and whistled and cheered for a long, long time. And you know why? Because deep down we know that what matters in this life is more than winning for ourselves. What really matters is helping others win, too, even if it means slowing down and changing our course now and then.”
― Fred Rogers
