-Unlike the leftist pundits, bloggers and protest marchers, whose earnest and public activities have had no effect on the rich and powerful, Madoff has aimed his blows where it hurts the most: Their mega-bank accounts, their confidence in the capitalist system, their self-esteem and, yes, even their cardiac well-being.-
MyHotCommentsBLESSED ARE THE MERCIFUL, FOR THEY WILL RECEIVE MERCY; DEAR GOD, I NEED TO SEE PEOPLE AS YOU SEE THEM. I NEED TO FEEL COMPASSION IN THE SAME WAY YOU HAVE COMPASSION FOR THEM. HELP ME TO BE FAR MORE AWARE OF THE HURTS AND SORROWS OF OTHERS AND TO SHOW THEM MERCY SO I MIGHT BE THE INSTRUMENT OF YOUR COMPASSION. THIS I PRAY. AMEN MERCY IS HUMANITY'S MOST NEEDED EMBRACE, IF THE WORLD IS TO BECOME A BETTER PLACE, WE MUST DEMONSTRATE THE SAME MERCY GOD HAS SHOWN US.
MyHotCommentsthough outwardly we are wasting away, yet inwardly we are being renewed day by day. for our light and momentrary troubles are achieving for us and eternal glory that far out weighd them all. today was a series of errors, miscommunications, and missteps. it'd be nice to for get about the day, but i know that while i am experiencing those bumps in the road there are more eternal activities in play. when i stumble, there is still victory you transform my very human errors into pearls of internal value. i have learned humility, perseverance, faith, and patience.not bad for a day's work ....may god bless you always, and have a wonderful and bless day. your friend, and family. peace and love:>)
Hi Sister, Robert and I are talking Lennon I know you are there so I wanted to stop by and say Hello and good wishes! Hope all is well how did the recording go?
Quand le blues croise la Country, Lorelei pointe alors le bout de son nez pour danser sur un Boléro d'un rythme binaire afin de se faire les poches le temps d'une chanson, la fée Mélusine s'étant penché sur son berceau, le soleil couchant, les étoiles se dévoilent. Un petit clin d’œil pour déposer mon encre indélébile de ma promenade sur ton space When the blues across the Country, Lorelei edge when the tip of his nose to dance on a Bolero a binary rhythm to be pockets le temps d'une chanson, the fairy Mélusine having looked at his birthplace, sun, the stars are revealed. A small wink for you to file my indelible ink on my walk on your space Tendres baisers vanillés France
