Thank you, Lord and my parents, for the gift of life and half century of enjoying it. As I head to the church for the morning Mass which I will offer in a spirit of immense gratitude to Almighty and Merciful God for the priceless gift of life and continuous support and blessings from the Lord, I have a great opportunity to meditate upon the mystery of life and what I have done with this gift. What was good and what was wrong? How much God worked to keep me alive and safe in various trials and dangers... At the end of the day I know what will be left is silence filled with humble realization how much I owe to Him...
