Threes are important, aren’t they?
How about Faith, Hope and Love?
The biggest three in my world anyway.
However, this morning, in the span of 30 minutes, it happened like this:
- Father V spoke about Love
- Art spoke about do-overs
- Dennis & Stacey spoke about making a difference
Please let me explain;
Number one. Our Priest spoke of Love being the ultimate choice in life. Not that we get to love, as much as we are loved. And our choice is in what we do with this knowlege. The goal, Father V said, is that we love others, as our Father loves us.
Number two. Art told me his oldest son graduated High School two days ago. I asked, “He grew up fast, didn’t he”? Art replied, “Too fast”. If given the chance to do it over, Art said something about doing it differently, carving out even more time than he did, knowing what he knows now.
Number three. Stacey and Dennis are sponsoring a fund-raiser, in honor of their beloved daughter, Whitney Lee DeCarlo, on Saturday, May 23, at our Church. I asked Stacey and Dennis if it would be OK to post a short You Tube video clip. Click here to see the short video clip. A few minutes earlier, we had just finished talking about trying to make a difference in our World, and using social media to do it.

This post is in honor of all those people trying to help others. This post is also inspired by the power of people working together for a common good.
While many reading have no way to attend Stacey and Dennis’ dinner gala for a great cause, maybe there is something else you can do in your corner of the world. Or, if you would like to make a tax deductible donation, please email Stacey at [email protected]
It is better to give than to receive, eh? Carpe diem, jeff noel 🙂
