Readings 14

The Lord bless you, and keep you;
The Lord make His face shine on you,
And be gracious to you;
The Lord lift up His countenance on you,
And give you peace.

Numbers 6:24-26


In this new year with all the gloomy news regarding fiscal cliff, increase in taxes and prices accordingly. More loans and less savings, global changes in weather, drought and floods in different parts of the planet, wars and killings of innocents ... What else is left than to just hope against all hope that the strength will be according to the hardship and difficulties we encounter in the new year.

Days will pass and people will die; just as mornings will come every day and babies will be born every minute of the day.

Take one day at a time.
Take time to do good and love yourself as you love your neighbor (or your work for that matter!).
Go forward since only then you will find what is to come up next.
Bend under the storm and strong winds since only that way you will not break!
Take time to look back and also to wish for the future.
And most of all, do not loose hope and do not despair since all shall pass.
The good will fade as the pain also.
We are so small and insignificant compared to the Universe. However, the Universe is in us and we ARE it.
