"We
are commanded to love God with all our strength, heart, mind and soul
and our neighbor in the same way God loves us - it is the same love
flowing between God and the soul - the soul and its neighbor. It is
difficult, but the burden of the cross is light compared to the cross of
uncontrolled emotions, anger, insistence on one's own opinion, the
frustration of trying to change others rather than being changed
oneself, resentment, regrets and guilt. Accepting the present moment
like Jesus did is certainly a lighter burden." - Mother Mary Angelica of the Annunciation, PCPA
News and notes from Tom Lopatosky on a variety of subjects including religion (especially Roman Catholicism); inspiration; New England; fire, rescue, and emergency medical services; and municipal government issues.
