True?  

 Don Juan assured me that in order to accomplish the feat of making myself miserable I had to work in a most intense fashion, and that it was absurd I had never realized I could work just the same in making myself complete and strong. "The trick is in what one emphasizes." he said, "We either make ourselves miserable, or we make ourselves strong. The amount of work is the same."

1.    Need roofing repair?  Yes, we discovered 2 leaks with all this rain.  Rosemary & I recommend Steven Summers of Pioneer Exteriors, 972-464-8488.  Hope you don't need him.  If you do, he is good.  

2.     Need bug control (roaches, ants, even mosquitoes) that is green (even the dog or cat can eat it safely)?   Try Lynn Ellis, 972-484-7287.  We have used her successfully for some years.  Been meaning to share this news for a long time.

Mention us at your own risk.

Our Angels

 Readings:

Isaiah  60, 1-6, Rise up in splendor, Jerusalem,  Your light has come.

Psalm 72,  Lord, every nation on earth will adore you.

Ephesians  3, 2-6, The Gentiles are coheirs.

An Angel named Torri

 For those who don’t have a decent Bible or a book of the readings, here are two links that I use, The Bible at Your Fingertips and USCCB, The New American Bible. 

The difference?  The second is officially Catholic and has the 12 little books in between the O.T. & N.T., called Deuterocanonical or Apocrypha. 

Both are good translations.  I use the first more often because it has fewer doors to pass through to get to the text.  Thanks, Gerald, for this idea.  I will include the link from now on.

One more week for our Christmas Tree

Rosemary reading her blessing

All paths are the same: they lead nowhere. They are paths going through the bush, or into the bush. In my own life I could say I have traversed long, long paths but I am not anywhere. My benefactor's question has meaning now. Does this path have a heart? If it does, the path is good; if it doesn't, it is of no use. Both paths lead nowhere, but one has a heart, the other doesn't. One makes for a joyful journey; as long as you follow it, you are one with it. The other will make you curse your life. One makes you stronger; the other weakens you.
