another party at work:

Philippine school year 2010-2011 started on 15th of June.

Liberation from Materialism by Peter Marshall

---
This is one of my favorite prayers.

Forbid it, Lord, that our roots become too firmly attached to this earth, that we should fall in love with things.

Help us to understand that the pilgrimage of this life is but an introduction, a preface, a training school for what is to come.

Then shall we see all of life in its true perspective. Then shall we not fall in love with the things of time, but come to love the things that endure. Then shall we be saved from the tyranny of possessions which we have no leisure to enjoy, of property whose care becomes a burden. Give us, we pray, the courage to simplify our lives.

So we may be mature in our faith, childlike but never childish, humble but never cringing, understanding but never conceited.

So help us, O God, to live and not merely exist, that we may have joy in our work. In Thy name, who alone can give us moderation and balance and zest for living, we pray.

Amen.

Sometimes, I change the pronouns OUR, WE and US to MY, I and ME to make it more personal.

The Lady or The Tiger?

---

I don't know if I would admire Frank Stockton for making such an open-ended short story or if I would feel disappointed towards him for hanging his readers like me at the end of the story.

I was intrigued by its summary from www.eastoftheweb.com:
A semi-barbaric king devises a semi-barabaric (but entirely fair) method of criminal trial involving two doors, a beautiful lady and a very hungry tiger.

I read it. And, there! Argh! Better find it out yourself. Just click on the image to see the full story.

Pole Dancer



Guys, it looked like I got most of you in my previous Shoot Me post.
To be honest, I was never a bus driver.
Hmmm...a pole dancer perhaps? :P
