By Grace Waters
White. A grey head bobs up and down under the gentle fall of snow. An old woman, burdened under a load of groceries from the corner store, makes her way home. Blank faces busied with their own lives ignore the passing figure. She reflects on her humble Cavalry; she is dying

Last night I had a flare up with my husband, over a long running issue of him pointing out ‘what I forget to do’ while I go behind him and undo what he has left undone and I don’t say anything. (It is not use, habits are hard to change.)

Holy Spirit Common Sense
By Kathy Lamb
I believe common sense and the help we receive from the Holy Spirit come from the same divine source. I imagine that how much real common sense we have is a measure of the Holy Spirit working in us.

Morals, Values and Baseball
By Nicholas LaBanca
With Spring in the air, it's easy for many people to start thinking about activities to do outside. One of those, that pops into my mind at least, is baseball. The regular season is only a couple weeks away, and things just got interesting on the South Side of Chicago.

True Story Of Gentleness And Forgiveness
By Kathy Lamb
I’d been mad at my cousin Judy since I was a child. I was mad at her for 50 years but in all that time I don’t think she even knew. It wasn’t a great burning hatred. I didn’t want something bad to happen to her. I just didn’t like her and told myself I would be perfectly happy if I never saw her again.

Why I Chose St. Paul as the Patron Saint of Investors
By Bill Ulivieri
St. Paul perfectly summarizes the results of every study conducted on investor behavior published in the last 20 or so years. We buy at the highs and we panic out at the lows. We rotate through investment fads just like we change diets and exercise plans.

Outward Sign
By Sue Hallett
My mind sometimes wanders at church. Does yours? Today, after the readings, a small baby was baptized. I was looking at the adults holding the little one, all bedecked in a white satin gown and cap, and was struck by how very young the grownups themselves looked. I didn’t know any of them. My mind wandered. Which ones were the parents of the baby?

Behind Every Great Woman is a Man Who Slays the Dragons
By Teresa Hurst
I’m an optimist by nature, with a “we got this”, can-do attitude that always drinks from the half full glass. My husband, on the other hand, is Mr. Realist. Johnny raincloud. He’s usually bursting my happy bubble with rational statements like: “We can’t spend more than we make, Teresa.”

Weary of the Journey?

I am reminded of a time when as we were traveling that the words “their patience worn out by the journey,” truly resonated the mood in our RV. We were tired, weary and grumpy and in much need of an attitude change back then.
