Mass is a good thing.
*
Hane has an up=day...
writing a blue streak on
her clip=board while
Rose Mary, Jim and i
minister to her. Not to
mention the nurses and
doctors who chart her
progress cumulatively.
She pulled four {4!} hours
on ambient oxygen/air.
Toni & Todd took time out
of their continuing miraculous
recoveries to visit---to me,
they look really, really Good.
Some=times long hard roads
kind of join each other.
Hane watched both the Mass
and the Rosary on EWTN.
{Rose Mary copped some Holy
Water from the cathedral real.}
Have i said recently that miracles
don't surprise me?

I would write about the
staggering tragedies in the South
Seas but to me they are simply
unfathomable. The mind &
soul are numb=struck by their
sheer magnitude. But i Pray no
less for them than for myself &
my fambly...the Trials are great
yet the Rewards of caring are
priceless in the sight of G^
In between dreams of Beauty
i felt a poignant emotion that:
"There are no lapsed Catholics."
{or any other religion, for that
matter} There is just the work
which impels us toward the
unity of Light. So~as long as
one is treading the correct Path,
there are no tripping points.
Mary Baker Eddy probably
agrees with me there. Join!
OH, Angels the songs of G's
fantabulous plan! It's a
mitzvah. The ruddy infant is
blessed and the yoke is mild.
OR~if you have a more Eastern
mind, remember to
Hear all & Say Nothing...
Bear all & Do Nothing...
Abandon all & Be Nothing.
{Also, pray as if every=thing
depended on Jehovah; Act as if
every=thing depended on You.}

Good to hear that Hane had an up day. I hope that she will be well enough to come home before long.
The south sea tragedy is beyond our imagination. I cannot get my brain around the extent of the devistation.
I agree with it all, and so well put, as you do.
However, while I am not a lapsed Catholic, I certainly am not practicing Catholicism, I find Methodist ways a little more cheery and suited to my life.
As my wise Grandma Heil once said, At least its SOME church. Instead of NONE

very wise words Slac, especially the last sentance...that one will stay in my thoughts today and always....it's hard to be happy lately with all the sadness going on in SEAsia....so unfair and heartbreaking....

ah..perfect news today.
go hane go!
Right Now~my mother is betwixt and between.
Guiding the multitudes before her in perfect
suffering AND not wanting to jump the line.
Her visits with US are extra credit Lessons.
Talk about Grace under pressure^
Happy New Year, my dear Slac!
It was a joy to read what a good day Hane had and also to know of Toni and Todd's continuing journey to recovery. Miracles know no bounds, indeed.
The tsunami tragedy is unfathomable, indeed. So much destruction, so much misery. In my mind, it didn't happen to strangers in faraway lands; it happened to fellow human beings who live(d) and breathe(d) the same air in what is everyday becoming a smaller world.
What is there to do in the face of such tragedy but to do what we humanly can, help the devastated rebuild and move on in spite of seemingly insurmountable loss? Humanity should have no borders. We are all in this, together.
aww, Hane...wonderful!
What a fighter....course she has so much love around her.
Toni & Todd visited! Captain`s Courageous!!
Prayers continue supplicating.
