Fun and Games

Wow, volley ball looks so effortless when others are playing, but I got four bruises to show for how full of effort and technique the game really is. It was fun to get together with friends and co-workers. I improved my serve, learnt how to not duck and actually return the ball over the net :) My arms are so soar...
I just heard on the news that Wayne is under presure to perform for the Miami Heat team...Bernie mack show is on and he is telling his 8 yr old 'to be a man' haha. He is so funny! Ne ways I really want to watch the movies, "The Blood Diamond", "The Inconvenient Truth", "The Painted Veil". "Reign over me" looks like a good one too.
What else, My final exam is next week and I need to study for it...obviously. Work is crazy like never before, you never really know how good you have it untill you lose it. I pray to God that I am aware of the goodness and love around me, Thanks to God. Really sleepy , eye lid weigh 20o tons heavy...can't type any longer...must sleep...ZZZZZZZZZZZZzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

Padre Pio - Jesus follower, inspiring...

"Pray, Hope, and Don't Worry!" Kind and encouraging words by Padre Pio. I heard about Padre Pio in our prayers meetings with our parish Father Med Laz. Padre Pio was a devot follower of Christ and was blessed with several gifts as explained on the website:"Padre Pio, a humble Capuchin priest from San Giovanni Rotondo, Italy, was blessed by God in many wonderful and mysterious ways. The most dramatic was the stigmata. Padre Pio bore the wounds of Christ for fifty years! Among his other gifts were perfume, bilocation, prophecy, conversion, reading of souls, and miraculous cures. People are still being cured through his intercession in ways that cannot be explained by medicine or science. More important, if less spectacular, are the spiritual healings that take place in all parts of the world! Padre Pio is a powerful intercessor!!" So, I am going to learn more about Padre Pio just like Pope John Paul II late, as Pope John Paul always said, "Do not be afraid!" (May their souls rest in peace); I pray I recieve devine influence by learning about their lives and grow closer to our Lord Jesus Christ. Jesus Christ Rocks!!!! :)
There are talks about making a movie on life of Padre Pio and as well as Pope John Paul II. I can't wait. Check out some of Pardre Pio's teachings.
