Reminder for the 16th Sunday in Ordinary Time, July 20, 2025
Genesis 18: One of them said, "I will surely return to you about this time next year, and Sarah will then have a son."
Colossians 1: It is he whom we proclaim, admonishing everyone and teaching everyone with all wisdom, that we may present everyone perfect in Christ.
Luke 10: "Martha, Martha, you are anxious and worried about many things. There is need of only one thing. Mary has chosen the better part and it will not be taken from her."
Life is not one choice. It is a series of many choices. It is not one stage or phase or decision. It is many of them. And it is out of all those things that we become the fullness of ourselves.
The Monastic Way, Sister Joan Chittister

Leo sweet talking his dad, Ray.True?
The only important thing is to follow nature. A tiger should be a good tiger; a tree, a good tree. So man should be man. But to know what man is, one must follow nature and go alone, admitting the importance of the unexpected. Still, nothing is possible without love….For love puts one in a mood to risk everything, and not to withhold important elements.

Andy's Memorial last SaturdayAndy's ashesTrue?
One day I had lunch with some friends. Jim, a short, balding 80 year old, came along.
When the menus were presented, we ordered salads, sandwiches, and soup, except for Jim who said, “Ice cream, please, two scoops. Along with heated apple pie”
I wasn’t sure my ears heard right, as if people did this all the time. But when our orders arrived, I did not enjoy mine.
I could not take my eyes off Jim as his pie a-la-mode went down. The other guys couldn’t believe it. The ate their salads silently and grinned.
The next time I went out to eat, I called and invited old Jim. I lunched on my salad. He ordered a sundae. I smiled. He asked me if he amused me. “Yes, you do, but you also confuse me. How come you order such rich desserts?”
He laughed and said, “I’m tasting all that is possible. I realize life is so short that I hate to miss anything good. I have never been this old before. So, before I die, I want to try those things that for years I had passed up. I haven’t smelled all the flowers yet!”
