"I wish it need not have happened in my time, " said Frodo. "So do I," said Gandalf, "and so do all who live to see such times. But that is not for us to decide. All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given us . . ."
Let nothing disturb you, Let nothing frighten you, All things pass away: God never changes. Patience obtains all things. He who has God Finds he lacks nothing; God alone suffices.
-- Saint Teresa of Avila
"Necessary emphasis should be placed on the 'genius of women,' not only by considering great and famous women of the past or present, but also those ordinary women who reveal the gift of their womanhood by placing themselves at the service of others in their everyday lives. For in giving themselves to others each day women fulfill their deepest vocation." --LETTER OF POPE JOHN PAUL II TO WOMEN, 29 June 1995
ALWAYS STRIVE TO CHOOSE...
The hardest instead of the easiest
The unpleasant instead of the pleasant
The least instead of the most
The worst instead of the best
To desire nothing instead of any desire
St. John of the Cross
The great enemy of truth is very often not the lie - deliberate, contrived and dishonest - but the myth - persistent, persuasive, and unrealistic. Too often, we enjoy the comfort of opinion without the discomfort of thought. ~JFK
There is nothing so strong as gentleness and nothing so gentle as real strength. ~St. Francis de Sales
"The secret of happiness is to live moment by moment and to thank God for all that He, in His goodness, sends to us day after day". - St. Gianna Beretta Molla
