Be Prepared

The Boy Scouts always teach "Be Prepared." The newspaper says snow tonight and into the morning. Everything outside says summer in January. But what if? So I changed my mass assignment from a mountain parish to which my car cannot go in the snow, to mass here at lower altitude where I don't have to drive. I may look like a fool in the morning, but better that than no mass in the mountain church.

Things look pretty calm in Mother Nature in general. I make plans for a future I fully expect to arrive. What if it does not? Second coming? Earthquake? Hundred year flood? Am I prepared for my end? I am a fool every day if I am not ready for plans other than my own.
