Tuesday Reflections

Plenty of sunshine today, Tuesday, over 757 (Hampton Roads)! It's cool, chilly, and breezy! (The temperature dropped dramatically, from previous days' high 70s to low to mid 50s today! I'm wondering if or whether I have to turn on our centralized heating system back at home, after I've turned it off last week! We'll see...) Anyway, thank you, God! Thank you, Jesus! We're alive and moving! Good day, everyone!

Lots of things and happenings going on in our world, as usual. Our Roman Catholic Supreme Pontiff, Pope Benedict XVI, has left Mexico and is now in Cuba. (May God bless him and his entourage! And all the people and pilgrims there in Cuba, and in Mexico. God bless us all!) The U.S. Supreme Court Justices have started hearing, arguing, debating since yesterday about the legality or constitutionality of the universal Health Care Law for all Americans (a.k.a. "Obamacare"). There's this ongoing investigation about the alleged killing of a 17-year old Trayvon Martin by a reported Neighborhood Watch volunteer George Zimmerman in Sanford, Florida. Yes, there are lots of news, and more news, here and there, everywhere around the globe. Lots of information we hear or read, receive, or ignore. And, lots of stuff to do, but can't do them all because of varied (and valid) reasons. Anyway, what is important is that we try to do what is pleasing to God. To try to do His will, not ours. Let's not get distracted in our Lenten journey through Easter, shall we? Stay focused, they say. And, we do our best.

Thank you, Lord, for all the (good and unpleasant) things going on around me. Thank you, God, for letting us do good for ourselves and for others. Thank you, Jesus, for inspiring us to sacrifice, and to accept pain and suffering as part of life. And, thank you, Almighty God, for our faith, family and friends.

As always, thanks YouTube and the uploaders of the videos I embedded with this blog post. Thank you, Google and Blogger, too. Thank you all people of goodwill.

Until next time around, friends. Thanks for your time. Take care. Have a wonderful Tuesday, everyone!-chris a. quilpa, 27March2012
