Happy New Year 2014

It is not idleness to spend a day sometimes just lying on a carpet of 

Daisies under a shady tree or walking through the woods on a bright 

Summer's day; listening to the murmur of the stream as its waters 

bubble down a pebbled path, listen to the chirping of the birds as they 

fly around in happiness or watch the white wisps of clouds sail through 

the blue skies or walk through the park with snowflakes falling gently all around. 

No indeed, it is not a waste of time For if one listens carefully, 
one can learn more than what the books ever teach for they 

speak the voice of God. Stop, listen, feel and appreciate the beauty 

around you, whether it be in the colors of a rainbow or a fluttering 

hummingbird, a snow capped mountain or a weeping willow tree, all 

crafted beautifully by nature. Nature adds beauty to this magical 

element of life that goes beyond the questioning of logic and science.

Memorial Day 2013

'Memorial Day' is a day to reflect on both the past and future of our nation. We remember our fallen, and we honor the ideals they defended, including freedom of speech and religion, democracy, and due process. Our soldiers protect these values through their service, yet as we acknowledge their dedication, we recognize that many threats to these American values have not been eliminated.

Mother's Day 2013

A baby asked God, “They tell me you are sending me to earth tomorrow,

but how am I going to live there being so small and helpless?”

God said, “Your angel will be waiting for you and will take care of you.”

The child further inquired, “But tell me, here in heaven I don’t have to do

anything but sing and smile to be happy.”

God said, “Your angel will sing for you and will also smile for you.

And you will feel your angel’s love and be very happy.”

Again the small child asked, “And how am I going to be able to understand

when people talk to me if I don’t know the language?”

God said, “Your angel will tell you the most beautiful and sweet words

you will ever hear, and with much patience and care, your angel will teach you how to speak.”

“And what am I going to do when I want to talk to you?”

God said, “Your angel will place your hands together and will teach you how to pray.”

“Who will protect me?”

God said, “Your angel will defend you even if it means risking its life.”

“But I will always be sad because I will not see you anymore.”

God said, “Your angel will always talk to you about Me and will teach you

the way to come back to Me, even though I will always be next to you.”

At that moment there was much peace in Heaven, but voices from Earth could

be heard and the child hurriedly asked, “God, if I am to leave now, please tell me my angel’s name.”

God said, You will simply call her, “Mom.”

Happy Mother's Day
