Gotcha, Meredith.
True?
There is pleasure in the pathless woods,
There is rapture in the lonely shore,
There is society where none intrudes,
By the deep sea, and music in its roar:
I love not man the less, but Nature more.

Sirach 35: The LORD is a God of justice, who knows no favorites.
2 Timothy 4: The Lord will rescue me from every evil threat and will bring me safe to his heavenly kingdom.
Luke 18: But the tax collector stood off at a distance and would not even raise his eyes to heaven but beat his breast and prayed, ‘O God, be merciful to me a sinner.’
I have a friend who follows the sun around her back yard in a deck chair with a glass of fresh fruit juice in one hand and a book in the other. Here’s the question: Is she “wasting” time or “celebrating” time? Think carefully before you answer. It can get to be a very important question as life goes by.

This from Anthony DeGenova:
Dear Father Stack,
Thank you very much for being my sponsor for my LEGO Drive, as part of my Eagle Scout project.
I would appreciate it, if you would please post the attached message to your blog.
I really value all of the support from you and the Stack Community.
Thanks, Anthony DeGenova
Our Father.
Dear Stack Ministry,
Hello, my name is Anthony DeGenova. I am 17 years old, and am working on my Boy Scouts Eagle Project. My mission is to donate LEGO blocks to under-privileged children. This project includes the collection, cleaning, sterilizing, sorting, packaging, and delivery of the LEGO blocks to a few charities that cater to children. I plan to donate all of mine, and would like very much to collect as many as possible from friends and neighbors like you, who wouldn’t mind giving theirs up for needy children. I am accepting both used and new LEGO blocks. Please bring the LEGO blocks to church and my parents will pick them up. Alternatively, I will gladly pick them up from your house, at your convenience.
If you have any questions, please contact me at:
Telephone: 972-495-3639
Email Address: anthonydegenova@outlook.com
I look forward to your support, and hope to make this drive and my Eagle project a success. Thank you very much for your help,
Anthony DeGenova

Anybody know these characters, like Jeanne & Patricia?
True?
This is my simple religion. No need for temples. No need for complicated philosophy. Your own mind, your own heart is the temple; the philosophy is simple kindness.
