Unbridled Joy

What is it that moves us from being happy and care free children to prideful and judgemental adults? Don't you remember the summer days spent with your neighborhood pals running through the spray of a lawn sprinkler? What fun.


Hey, if you promise not to laugh at my lily white legs, beer gut and hairy back, I'll dance around the fountain pool with you. Just pretend we're kids again.

Dear Rob, thank you So much for lighting a candle for me at St. Teresa's shrine! It really meant alot to me, she really was simplistic in her devotions! I have a prayer of The Holy Spirit that many of the saints prayed :
Veni Creator Spiritus,
Come Creator, Spirit come,from your bright heavenly throne, come take possession of our souls, and make them all your own.
You who are called the Paraclete, best gift of God above, the living spring, the vital fire, sweet christ'ning and true love. You who are sev'nfold in your grace, finger of God's right hand; His promise, teaching little ones , to speak and understand. O guide our minds with your best light, with love in our hearts inflame; and with your strength, which ne'er decays, confirm our mortal frame. Far from us our deadly foe; true peace unto us bring; and through all perils lead us safe, beneath your sacred wing. Through you may we the Father know, through you th' eternal Son, and you the Spirit of them both, thrice-blessed Three in One. All glory to the Father be, with his co-equal Son; the same to you, great Paraclete, while endless ages run.
