Today I was crushing some cereal to make cookies and I heard a soft ‘..tinkle, tinkle, tinkle..’. Then, I heard it a few more times and saw that was some musical, ceramic birds that once belonged to my mother. She has been gone now for almost four years and loved those musical things. I still really miss her, as at the time of her death so much was going on with my two siblings I don’t think I was able to truly grieve. She has spoken to me in other ways and I know she’s there and just a heartbeat away.

A mother was preparing pancakes for her sons, Kevin 5, and Ryan 3
The boys began to argue over who would get the first pancake.
Their mother saw the opportunity for a moral lesson.
‘If Jesus were sitting here, He would say,
‘Let my brother have the first pancake, I can wait.’
Kevin turned to his younger brother and said,
‘Ryan , you be Jesus !’

Tonight I attended a memorial mass for a young boy in our parish who passed away a few years ago. On the back of the program for the event was a poem in which I saw God. It read:
And if I go, while you’re still here…….
Know that I live on, vibrating to a different measure behind a thin veil that you cannot see through.
You will not see me, so you must have faith. I wait the time when we can soar together again, both aware of each other.
Until then, live your life to its fullest. And when you need me, just whisper my name in your heart,
……I will be there. Colleen Hitchcock

My Cub Scout den was recently treated to a tour of a fire station. The boys got to spray the fire hose, climb into the trucks, try on the gear, and were even given milk and cookies, served personally by the firefighters. I left with a sincere appreciation of the generous spirit of these men and women, who make a living, and risk their lives, serving others.

My wife and kids have been trying to convince me it is time to get a dog. Today they emailed me the picture you see above. Tough to say ‘No’ to this kind of salesmanship!

The Joy of Being Like Others
“At first sight, joy seems to be connected with being different. When you receive a compliment or win an award, you experience the joy of not being the same as others. You are faster, smarter, more beautiful, and it is that difference that brings you joy. But such joy is very temporary. True joy is hidden where we are the same as other people: fragile and mortal. It is the joy of belonging to the human race. It is the joy of being with others as a friend, a companion, a fellow traveler. This is the joy of Jesus, who is Emmanuel: God-with-us.” by Henri Nouwen
