What will it be like when we close our eyes for the last time on this earth? What will we see? There have been some who have had “near death experiences” and returned to give us some clues…. a bright light, a feeling of peace, meeting loved ones….. well those may be real clues, but … Continue reading “Well Done Good & Faithful Servant”

“A Good Guy”
I’ve sometimes thought that you can look at your life like a book with many chapters…. perhaps divided by age, maybe by the good times and the bad times, by successes and failures…. a book still being written. Yet, what about the title…. what will the title be? I have had the privilege of knowing … Continue reading “A Good Guy”
“Having A Big Mouth Is Not Always Bad”
For a TV Show that was only on for one year, the “Honeymooners” was a classic. Most people from my generations remember Ralph Kramden as the loveable buffoon who constantly shot himself in the foot. When his latest scheme would come crashing down, he would often shout in desperation, “YOU KNOW WHAT NORTON, I’VE GOT … Continue reading “Having A Big Mouth Is Not Always Bad”
“Friends In Heaven, When All Injuries Shall Be Forgotten”
I just read a story about Ronald Reagan and Tip O’Neil. “Reagan, the 40th President of the United States and O’Neill, Speaker of the House of Representatives, were two political opposites…. fierce adversaries. The story goes that following the assassination attempt on Reagan, O’Neill was one of the first people to visit him at George Washington … Continue reading “Friends In Heaven, When All Injuries Shall Be Forgotten”
“Crossing The Bridge”
Transitions are often difficult. They come in different shapes and sizes all our life…. sometimes they seem to come every week or month… other times they come every few years, or as our stage in lifechanges. Crossing the bridge to the next moment is often not easy. I remember being at Camp Chaminade, a two week … Continue reading “Crossing The Bridge”

“We Make God Smile”
I enjoy little children. When I see little children, I can’t help having a smile on my face…. they bring me joy as I watch them in their innocence, in their play… as I see them delight in a cookie or a toy … as I see them giggle or screech as their mom or … Continue reading “We Make God Smile”
Ever Hear Of Self-Love?
Recently Archbishop Luis Martinez used me as an example in order to make a few points. He didn’t clear it with me. To be honest, I didn’t come off looking very good in the article. Hmmmmm. I know he died in 1956 when I was only 10 years old, so you may wonder how he … Continue reading Ever Hear Of Self-Love?
“There Are No Lone Rangers”
“Two are better than one…for if one falls, the other will lift him up; but woe to him who is alone when he falls and has not another to lift him up.” (Eccles. 4:9-10) There are no lone rangers that make it very far …. even the real “Lone Ranger” had Tonto…. his faithful Indian guide. In … Continue reading “There Are No Lone Rangers”
