Here is a (loose) quote and credited to Leo Tolstoy:

 

It’s not how compatible you are but how you deal with incompatibility

 

Incapability means: Mismatched – Unsuited – Unharmonious – Dissenting

 

Wow! This quote is not just about marriage. It refers to all our relationships – Mothers, Fathers, Brothers, Sisters, Aunts, Uncles, Cousins, Daughters, Sons, Grand-Children, Friends (anymore on this vast list?)

 

How many couples are mismatched?

How many extended family members live with dissention?

How immediate families live in unharmonious situations?

 

I’ll answer my own questions – How about every couple, how about every extended family members and how about every family?

 

I have good news and bad news! This quote deals with the individual (you and me).

 

The good news is: It’s all about me

 

The bad news is: It’s all about me and how I deal with everyone

 

One thing I ask of the LORD, this is what I seek: that I may dwell in the house of the LORD all the days of my life, to gaze upon the beauty of the LORD and to seek him in his temple.

Catholics will decide this election.

Quiner’s Diner has made the case that “the Catholic vote could tip the election” in a previous post.

The selection of Congressman Paul Ryan was the equivalent of injecting orthodox Catholics with high potency steroids. In Paul Ryan, we have a man who embraces his Church’s non-negotiable positions on Life and Marriage. Even more, he embraces his Church’s positions on key social justice issues. He simply approaches them differently than liberals want.

Paul Ryan doesn’t want to get rid of our social safety net as his detractors claim. He wants to save it. Mr. Ryan says what Democrats refuse to acknowledge, that the emperor has no clothes. Our current fiscal path is unsustainable.

Our entitlement programs are going to break the bank on their present course.

Interest payments are consuming bigger and bigger chunks of our budget.

We can’t tax ourselves out…
