thank the Lord for the light

Knowing ourselves makes us able to determine our purpose here on earth. As Blessed Maria Domenica says, we have to thank the Lord for this light he gives us.

The photo is a lampost and the dying light of sunset viewed from a resort here in the Philippines.

Be yourself

How timely is this quote from  John Jakes! Too often, we put on a different face when we are in front of friends, or family, or associates. It seems that we got multiple personalities. So this reminder about being yourself is rather a wake up call. We really must let our true selves shine through in everything that we do.

The photo is a variety of peace lily or Spathiphyllum.
