THOUGHT FOR THE DAY - JOYFUL FAMILY

"To maintain a joyful family requires
much from both the parents and the children.
Each member has to become, in a special way,
the servant of the others."



Pope John Paul II

JOY, AN ELUSIVE EXPERIENCE!

Joy is one of the most elusive of all human experiences. You can't catch it when you want it, and you lose it even when you are already touching it with your fingertips. But when you give up chasing it, it alights on your head, like a butterfly, and changes the world for you; the ordinary becomes extraordinary, the drab colorful and the workaday special. And you are taken aback, always in surprise because joy comes when you least expect it.
