Where are you and who are you???

This is one of my many favorite quotes.  Sometimes we are so wrapped up in where we are going we miss the journey.  We completely miss being in the present moment.  We tell ourselves that once we get there we will take some time.  We will play or relax, whatever it is we are not doing right now.  

What if we always looked at our lives as though we are there?  That right now in this very moment I am where I am meant to be.   I can be happy right now.  I can work hard, and study hard, and play hard, but I can be happy right now.  

No matter where I go, there I am.  I might as well be happy where ever I go.  Look at the glass half full, and try my very best to bring joy and happiness to the lives of others.  

Go where you must, but go knowing you have a choice to be your very best every day.  Today I choose to take a deep breath, relax and just be... be happy, be thankful, be grateful.  

Blessings for a wonderful week!

Feast of the Assumption Aug 15th

The Feast of the Assumption is one of the most important feast days of the year and a Holy Day of Obligation on the official Roman Catholic Church calendar.  By tradition, the holy day is observed every August 15. This year, the Feast of the Assumption occurs on Wednesday, August 15, 2012.  According to Roman Catholic theology, Mary was "assumed body and soul into heavenly glory" several years after her son, Jesus, ascended into heaven.

Bishop Ricken Issues Formal Decree. Marian Apparitions at the Shrine of Our Lady of Good Help are first and only in the U.S. to be approved by the Church!

If you are ever in the Green Bay, Wisconsin area I encourage you to go to the shrine.  It is a peaceful and holy place.  You can walk the grounds, sit in the church, or spend time in the chapel.  However you choose to spend your time there it will be a blessing.  

Let us always be mindful of the love our Mother Mary had for her son Jesus and the love she has for each of us.   

Blessings for a wonderful week.
