Break out of your comfort zone...
and stay out. There’s some shit that you just gotta do, but approach it with a positive attitude and do it to the best of your ability.
The Gospel
Today’s gospel reading was a tale about an adulteress. The Pharisees made her stand in the middle of the temple, where she was to be stoned for her sins in accordance with the law of Moses. Jesus crouched down and began writing on the ground with his finger. Then Jesus tells the people, “Let the one among you who is without sin be the first to throw a stone”. And each one of...

Sportsfest
If You Think You’re Beaten If you think you’re beaten, you are, If you think you dare not, you don’t. If you’d like to win, but think you can’t, It’s almost for sure, you won’t. If you think you’re losing, you’ve lost. For out in the world we find - Success begins with a person’s will, It’s all in the state of mind. If you...
Intrinsic
Now’s the time to kick it into high gear. We only have 3 rehearsals left. Run through the finish line. Give it your all. Feel the groove. Rock every piece. Go hard. Bring it.

Keep that INTRINSIC desire to dance. ...
Prayer to Jesus Crucified
O Jesus, so good and gentle, look down upon us humbly kneeling in Your sight. With souls aflame, we earnestly beg you to permeate our hearts with vivid sentiments of FAITH, HOPE and LOVE.

While we gaze at your five wounds with real pain of soul and true love, we meditate on their meaning for us, and remember the words DAVID, Your...
Prayer For Peace
Lord, make me an instrument of your peace. Where there is hatred, let me sow love, Where there is injury, pardon Where there is doubt, faith, Where there is despair, hope, Where there is darkness, light, Where there is sadness, joy. O Divine Master, grant that I may not so much seek to be consoled as to console, not so much to be understood as to understand, not so much to...
Pacquiao v. Clottey
Patience was Pacquiao’s key to victory in this fight. Despite Clottey’s somewhat almost impenetrable guard, Pacquiao’s patience persevered through it all. He didn’t allow himself to get frustrated. He kept his composure and stayed calm while still throwing punches like the beast that he is. Even with a Clottey low blow and a seemingly cheap shot while Clottey had an arm...
Passion
“Enthusiasm is one of the most powerful engines of success. When you do a thing, do it with all your might. Put your whole soul into it. Stamp it with your own personality. Be active, be energetic and faithful, and you will accomplish your object. Nothing great was ever achieved without enthusiasm.” — Ralph Waldo Emerson

Don’t be afraid to make mistakes, for it is through mistakes that we learn and grow.
