Alexander's linguistic comedy routine at CanIL.  One of the funniest things I've seen all year, though I didn't understand half of it.  :)

ANYWAY
People are unreasonable, illogical, and self-centered.
Love them anyway.

If you are kind, people may accuse you of selfish ulterior motives.
Be kind anyway.

If you are successful, you will win some false friends and true enemies.
Succeed anyway.

The good you do today will be forgotten tomorrow.
Be good anyway.

Honesty and frankness will make you vulnerable.
Be honest and frank anyway.

What you spend years building may be destroyed overnight.
Build anyway.

People need help but will attack you if you help them.
Help them anyway.

In the final analysis, it is between you and God.
It was never between you and them anyway.

*Kent Keith originated this poem in 1968, and Mother Teresa placed it on her children's home in Calcutta in a slightly different version. As a result, many have attributed it to Mother Teresa.

Nov. 8th, 2008 @ 01:12 pm The Sun
Have you ever noticed that the sun is still shining even when the sky is cloudy? I, at least, always seem to get caught up in the clouds and the rain. It was only today, when I saw the sun darting in and out from a partly cloudy sky, that it really occurred to me that the sun is always there, always shining.

And while this may, in itself, seem like a trivial observation, I feel that things are often the same way with God. There are times when it's perfectly clear that God is there, shining on my life. There are other times where I can't seem to see beyond the clouds and the problems that are binding me. But just like a cloudy sky doesn't stop the sun from shining, troubled times don't imply that God has forsaken me.

'Faith is being sure of what we hope for and certain of what we do not see' -- even when the skies are gray and the rains are pouring down.

I will praise you in this storm, and I will lift my hands
for you are who you are, no matter where I am...
Every tear I cry you hold in your hands.
You're always by my side, and though my heart is torn,
I will praise you in this storm.
