Breathing Lesson

Sometimes a few words can be more powerful than an entire book, perhaps because the briefer the message, the longer our memory of it. This morning I found that the team at info.franciscanmedia.org had opened a treasure chest of such brief messages in addition to longer writings — all offering different perspectives of how to meet life in a time of a pandemic. It’s worth a trip to their website to find your favorites. Here is one of mine.

Before we succumb to someday, let us inhale this day. (This Is the Life by Terry Hershey.)

Have a good day…and remember to both inhale and exhale!

As I clicked my way through my normal check of websites for inspiration this morning, my eye fell on an advertisement for a book offered by Franciscan Media. The book is called This Is the Life. Although it was attractive to me because of the picture of an ice cream cone on the book jacket, it was the tag line accompanying the image that caught my attention. See what you think.

Before we succumb to someday, let us inhale this day.

That one will give me pause, slow me down and keep me breathing!
