Dad (to Sam): So, you're squared away for life?
Sam: Yep--I'm all set! I've got the rest of my life all planned out!
Dad: Very funny. I mean for the Scout Board of Review--are you Star or Life?
Sam: Thanks for taking such an active interest in my scouting.
Shane: I'm going to be 1st Class. I caught up with Dad!
Sam: Oh, I outrank you now Dad. I guess you'll have to salute me.
Dad: Yeah, yeah. I'm over here crying my eyes out over that.
Sam: Well, when the world is ending and you're left with just a piece of rope to save your life--too bad you won't know what to do.
May today there be peace within you. May you trust God that you are exactly where you are meant to be. May you not forget the infinite possibilities that are born in faith. May you use those gifts that you have received, and pass on the love that has been given to you. May you be content knowing you are a child of God. Let this presence settle into your bones and allow your soul the freedom to sing, dance, praise and love. It is there for each and every one of us. St. Theresa’s Prayer
