Saints & Angels: The TLB Prime series
What better time than ALL-SAINTS DAY to bring back this feature to TLB PRIME!
"Um santo é alguém que, apesar dos limites e defeitos, vive plenamente a vida de Deus. Com humildade a vive, não precisa de o mostrar aos outros".
"A saint is someone who, despite his limitations and flaws, lives fully and completely a Godly life with humility; for he does not need to show it to others".
- PADRE CRUZ (1859-1948), translated by Luciano Pimentel (1969-20__)
Sometimes, a tiny glimpse of our budding saintliness peeks outside though, into the sinful realm we call our world/society...
And that is when we get to notice the "everysaint" in our midst, I say... An everyman or everywoman whose presence we'd fail to notice completely otherwise.
"I was just sitting around thinking about why I bother to sign petitions. I do it because it is the only way that some things will change. Sure, it seems like the world is going to hell in a handbasket, but what person in what time doesn't feel this way.
I'm not rich, in fact I'm quite poor and I cannot afford to become a charter member. Signing petitions is all that I can do right now. If times change and I become financially able to contribute to these worthy causes, I will do so, but until that happens I will continue to sign petitions and even after that happens you can count on my name being there."
- Shanna, Care2.com
Let us attempt to be like Shanna and others like her, today and every other day of our passage on this earth - let us make a difference, do GOOD where we can, when we can. Any which way we can!
God Is an understanding God; He Will Reward it all.
Let us just try and be saintly.
Amen!

All You Hallows In High Places...!
WELL, WELL, WELL ...
IT'S THAT TIME OF THE YEAR AGAIN, EH
TIME TO MAKE A KILLING
IF ONLY ON THE COSTUMED PARTY SCENE!
MY LUMINOUS ADVICE:
DRESS UP THE KIDDIES
(IF NOT YOURSELF TOO)
AS SOMETHING LIKE THIS:
RATHER THAN SOMETHING LIKE THIS:
EITHER WAY THOUGH -
HAPPY
HALLOWEEN!
AND REMEMBER TO PAUSE
AND THINK OF THE GHOSTIES
AND GHOULIES THAT GO BUMP
IN THE DARK OF THE NIGHT -
FOR IT IS THEIR PRESENCE
THAT ORIGINALLY BEGAT
THIS "HALLOWS' EVE" THING...!
Forgetting that fact of life
and afterlife
could cause serious repercussions
sometime, down the stretch...
And believe you me;
you don't want to wind up living
in one of these:
