Lent Day 30
The Miraculous Medal was the result of Mary's appearance to St. Catherine Laboure' in Paris 1830.
People who wear this medal are granted many favors. It is oval shaped with one side having an image of Mary with arms outstretched, and around the border the words "O Mary conceived without sin, pray for us who have recourse to thee". The other side has an M with a cross above it and two hearts below it.
Keep it handy and don’t be afraid to ask for favors, for it is written “Ask and you shall receive, knock and it shall be opened”.

About Me
- Joe
- Life is not about just me, it is about what I can do to somehow make the world a better place. I have to ask myself daily, what did I do today, make someone smile or frown? If I did the former, I am doing my job. If the latter, I have to revisit why I am here. Maybe the frown was the result of something I said for their own good, but they did not accept it. I cannot help that, because you can lead a horse to water but you cannot make the horse drink. That does not imply that I know everything, but I can only speak from my own experiences. Experience sometimes means I have found lots of ways to make mistakes, but mistakes can be the best teachers. Life is choices, I can choose to let everyone learn from their own mistakes, or share my experiences, and by doing so, hopefully help someone avoid the same mistakes.
