such a beautiful mass at St. Catherines. There were nuns that were visiting . I have such admiration for them; for their walk in life and dedication to Christ....truly beautiful ...When we went up for communion they made sure everyone went up before them..that was truly humbling....have a beautiful day friends

A religious man is a person who holds God and man in one thought at one time, at all times, who suffers harm done to others, whose greatest passion is compassion, whose greatest strength is love and defiance of despair.
Abraham Joshua Heschel

friends I really need some prayers for my friend Jeremy Cenci. His mother Carol has just been admitted for emergency surgery.Thank you and God bless

I love the saying about the gardner, how true it is. As far as your cart wheel you just haven't done one in a while. Nothing a little exercise won't fix, but old you ain't, LOL! I can only dream of being 42 again. Some of the best years of my life were in my 40's.

Where is everybody?

Don't worry. God is never blind to your tears, never deaf to your prayers and never silent to your pain. He sees, He hears and He's never too far.

Have a great day all and God

Where I had surgery and have the plate in my leg from accident..I still experience swelling occasionally..is that unusual ?...even when I behave and do not attempt cartwheels this happens..lol

I went out in the yard and did some running and jumping yesterday with kids...In my demented state (LOL) I thought for a moment I was a high school cheerleader once again ..an attempted cart wheel ; went wrong..(my accident a few years back wont let me anymore)....let us just say I realize especially today that I am 42 and no longer 22

There are many tired gardeners but I've seldom met old gardeners. I know many elderly gardeners but the majority are young at heart. Gardening simply does not allow one to be mentally old, because too many hopes and dreams are yet to be realized. The one absolute of gardeners is faith. Regardless of how bad past gardens have been, every gardener believes that next year's will be better. It is easy to age when there is nothing to believe in, nothing to hope for; gardeners, however, simply refuse to grow up. Thomas Jefferson said once, "Though an old man, I am but a young gardener"."
