Life now seems to be so dull, And full of anguish and pity. It is now monotonous, leading to an expected end While the soul cries out to just be shaken And bows its head to acknowledge it will never happen. I want life, All that is in it – the good, the bad, the logical, the unanswered, the sorrow, the sadness, the pity, the joy, the happiness and the jubilation. I want all of life. I want to know all the knowledge Man has sought to acquire, And all the things he made up to enjoy his life spent…
Ephesians 1:11-14; Psalm 33; Luke 12:1-7 In the first reading, Jesus addresses two major challenges we need to confront as children of God.

With fame comes the temptation to pretend to be who we are not. We can only be hypocrites before people but not before God, God sees through the actor’s mask. The art of being a hypocrite depends…

One’s dressing is an expression of their sexuality, a reflection of their reality, and a symbol of their identity. Moreover, it might not always reflect one’s ancestry because to some that is simply history. You could say that one’s true nature in the present is what one’s clothing represents. Provided there is sincerity and no pretense as their essence is encapsulated in the clothes people wear by which they make a statement. Merely an enactment of their lives. If humankind would truly achieve world peace, we must all learn to tolerate each other, especially, how each person dresses. Acknowledging the…
1 Samuel 1:24-28; Responsorial: 1 Sam 2; Luke 1:46-56 In the first reading of today, we have the account of how Hannah fulfilled her vows to the Lord. Hannah was childless for many years; she was bullied and mocked by Peninnah, her husband’s second wife. In her distress, she cried to the Lord, in her prayers, she vowed that if the Lord gives her a child, she would dedicate the child to the Lord. God is a prayer-answering God, God gave her the child and today, she comes to fulfill her vow. Two lessons for us here. Giving back to…
