Food for thought

I got inspired by my son-in-law, Josh's quotes. There are some that really grab me, and I'm going try to start sharing them.
Tonights zinger (for me, at least) was this:

    Nothing is more practical than finding God, than falling in love in a quite absolute, final way. What you are in love with, what seizes your imagination, will affect everything.

    It will decide what will get you out of bed in the morning, what you will do with your evening, how you spend your weekends, what you read, whom you know, what breaks your heart, and what amazes you with joy and gratitude. Fall in love, stay in love, and it will decide everything. -- Fr. Pedro Arrupe, S.J.

God is love, and in His kingdom is peace and joy. I want to live there. Your kingdom come, your will be done, on eerth, in my heart, O Lover of my soul!

You look like your mother!

As we took these shots, someone told Rosie how much she looked like me. She said that she didn't used to be told that as much.




But after she gained some weight, she heard that a lot! Ummm, thanks, Rosie. Mom loved it!
