Gloomy days are your call

College campus walkway
An hour ago this photo was taken. It’s 40 degrees, cloudy, and steady, light rain. Glorious. Photo: College campus main walkway.

Gloomy days are your call.

How cool is that?

It costs $800k

The Rosary Mario held during his open-heart surgery. i asked permission to photograph it.

Went to Mass alone yesterday.

Got in line for coffee and donuts even though i don’t do either.

Just wanted to participate in spiritual community.

Maybe 15 minutes in line talking with a friend, he and his Family get coffee and donuts and i decide which table to sit at amongst the 20 tables in the long, narrow room.

The closest table at the end of the donut tables was empty except for a middle-aged man i’ve never seen before.

A year ago to the day, he and his wife arrived from Dominican Republic to spend Christmas with his 28-year old only son.

Stomach pain landed him in the local hospital at 3:00 PM, and the doctors told him he needed open-heart surgery at 6:00 AM.

His heart was so bad, they said he’d soon die.

He didn’t have $800,000, nor insurance to cover the surgery.

His prognosis was only 15-20% he’d survive the surgery.

The hospital gave him the $800,000 operation and subsequent treatments and therapies for free.

A priest gave him last rights and a Rosary.

He asked the medical team if he could hold the Rosary in his hand during the surgery.

This is a story that can’t be made up.

i almost stayed home.

i almost skipped coffee and donuts.

i almost didn’t sit at Mario’s table.

Yeehaw and giddy up

Divine intervention on a tee shirt?

Yeehaw and giddy up.

Listen beyond the noise.

What’s the noise?

Everything that holds you back:

  • distractions
  • medication
  • entertainment
  • fear
  • excuses

i know them well.

So do you.

What i also know even better than the first list, is this list – my favorite list:

  • focus
  • discipline
  • purpose
  • drive
  • creativity
  • generosity
  • gratitude.

Giddy up sister.

Yeehaw!

There are always opposites

Marketing. A lot of marketing is hype. Some is not. They both look the same.

There are always opposites.

Pro-religion.

Anti-religion.

Once again, the great news is is that you get to decide.

Insight: Commitment is contagious. You will find both sides committed to their argument. Do what makes the most sense for you, and know that your younger self has permission to change and grow as you learn through your decades.
