Thought for today:
"Tonight, Sheila and I will be attending the birthday celebrations of our friend, Lynne. No presents are requested; instead all proceeds of the bash are directed to a worthy, charitable cause. It speaks well of mankind in general and the 'birthday girl' in particular, that even during one's moments of celebration that we do not forget those in the world who have so little to rejoice about. My friend and all those of generosity and compassion like her, remind me that it is only through our charity and concern for the poor, sick, discriminated, tortured and repressed that we become the 'good person' that God meant us to be. Charity of mind, body and soul are a true reflection of one's most noble of acts and are no less than a shadow of our Maker's intent." William Forde: November 24th, 2012.
