Gains And Losses


Have you ever noticed that when you do bad things you lose stuff and when you do good things you gain stuff?  Do badly enough and you lose spouses, cars, homes, jobs and even health.  Do good and you gain friends who love you.  Or at least tolerate you, if they are the same people to whom you did a lot of the bad.  If you are looking for something useful to do, I hear that the world is terribly short on self-giving love.

  1. Fr Terry, This is a chestnut, a basic pearl of wisdom that I have found to be true. If each of us look deeply enough at those around us, we can find the one who needs us most. We can make a difference, bring a smile, share a moment; self-giving love. Merry Christmas. BD
