You too can experience this
I have to post this today: Spread joy around the world. Look at this cartoon by Mike and his wife Kirsti Strickland and Dustin Haynes. I salute you for this wonderful cartoon - It is your idea that I am spreading with my blog around the world [read my post on the statistics to see it is going worldwide]. Thank you for encouraging me to do that.
And I am thinking of the prayer of St. Francis of Assisi.
Lord, make me an instrument of your peace,
Where there is hatred, let me sow love;
where there is injury, pardon;
where there is doubt, faith;
where there is despair, hope;
where there is darkness, light;
where there is sadness, joy;
Where there is hatred, let me sow love;
where there is injury, pardon;
where there is doubt, faith;
where there is despair, hope;
where there is darkness, light;
where there is sadness, joy;
O Divine Master, grant that I may not so much seek to be consoled as to console;
to be understood as to understand;
to be loved as to love.
to be understood as to understand;
to be loved as to love.
For it is in giving that we receive;
it is in pardoning that we are pardoned;
and it is in dying that we are born to eternal life.
it is in pardoning that we are pardoned;
and it is in dying that we are born to eternal life.
