When I see someone
With malice in his heart
I want to be the mirror of his hatred
Until I let myself see the God in him.

When I stand in error
Having done a thing I meant never to do
I view myself with loathing
Until I let myself know the God in me.

When we stand apart
Making differences of all we are
I want to win the battle of our wills
Until I allow the thought that we are both Creators.

Is it respect I must then admit to
Or tolerance or acceptance?
Or is it the caress of understanding we are One?

Thank you for letting me share this loving and inspired reminder, Mary Beth…
Just the message I needed to hear this morning….Donna

Louis, love of my life, and all around wonderful, kind-hearted and compassionate guy is presently participating in an amazing, life altering adventure. He has been working on a personal goal to participate in a 100 mile bike ride this year, and has been busy self training for a few months already. To give a greater purpose to his goal, he has now partnered with The Leukemia and Lymphoma Society’s Team In Training program.

Come June 7th, he will be participating in “America’s Most Beautiful Bike Ride”, a 100 mile ride around Lake Tahoe. During the next several months of intense training with his Team In Training coaches and teammates, his more important mission is to raise a minimum of $3900 to help find a cure for leukemia, lymphoma, Hodgkin lymphoma and myeloma. To accomplish this, he is asking for your generous support. Help find a cure by donating now.

Please go to his personal online fundraising page for your credit card donations: http://pages.teamintraining.org/los/ambbr09/lcetorelli

Your generosity is greatly appreciated. Thank you.
