Whether we fear pain and suffering or not, pain and suffering will come to everyone. Why not keep our minds focused on where we want to go?

How can our hearts not break? How can we hold our tears? How can we bear the pain of losing those loving children and their guardians, who were slain in Newtown, Conn.? Why can't we face the reality of our times and restrict deranged people from having these destructive powers?

Only barbarians are not curious about where they come from, how they came to be where they are, where they appear to be going, whether they wish to go there, and if so, why, and if not, why not.

I have faith in faith. God is there, whether we have faith or not, so why not have faith in him?

I know why jobs go, and I know why they come.

We should honor Mother Earth with gratitude; otherwise our spirituality may become hypocritical.
