Thought for today: 

“But as a wise man once said, just because we are done with the past doesn’t mean the past is done with us.”   

Quoted by Sarah Hepola 

in a New York Times article, 

“Kavanaugh and the Blackout 

Theory," September 29, 2018.  

Sarah Hepola is the author 

of the best-selling memoir “

Blackout: Remembering the 

Things I Drank to Forget.”

DON’T  KNOW  WHAT 
TO  SAY? 

Don’t know what to say?
Say, “Thank you.”

Don’t know what to say?

Say, “Hope you’re okay,  today?”

Don’t know what to say?

Say, “You’re the best.”

Don’t know what to say?

Say, “You're a blessing.”

EVENING SONG

I  stand  here at the edge of the universe 

as  darkness  begins to crowd me out. 

I put my coat under my head for a pillow. 

I put my hands together to pray to you. 

Lord, give me a place  to sleep. 

I am tired from too many steps. 

I have been walking and hiding in 

too many  corners of this foreign land. 

Lord, I need a good night’s sleep. 

Lord, send me a Holy Angel. 

Lord, give me sweet dreams. 

Lord, give all a deep sleep tonight. 

My translation of "Esti dal”

from the Hungarian Composer

and Music Collector of the people

Zoltan Kodaly [1882-1967]

MORNING  SONG

“Glory to God in the highest!”

or “Give God the Glory.”

Great words. Great morning prayer.

Great words or song to begin the day.

In the shower…. On our knees ….

Or simply getting out of our bed.

“Glory to God in the highest!”

or “Give God the Glory.”
