Walk in the Garden

A quote from mother Agatha Murphy:

...When we grow old we will walk in the garden and laugh at the hardships of today.


It's been a while since I last blogged. I've been helping various people move from one house to the next, including myself. It's been a very busy July and not much time for computers, mail or even phone calls except to direct trucks, boxes and movers to move things where they needed to go.

Mother Agatha's word today would also be a reflection of what Catherine might have said had she lived long enough to be able to retire and let others take on the heavy work.

We are about so many things that the hardships of today seem to overwhelm us and yet if we could put them into perspective, we would see that they were not all that much. How much work and worry do we put in the things we do. Or as the saying goes, :Don;t sweat the small stuff." God would say, "Do not worry, I'm in charge today.."

Well, let us reflect upon what we worry about and ask this question: Would it matter eight years from now? If not, let it go!
