Feeling a Bit Bummed Out at the Moment!!

Yes, I've been feeling a bit bummed out for the past few hours, so far, for no important reason.  But, this will pass.  We all get this way.  It's only human. 

Oftentimes, there are reasons why people feel a bit depressed; and sometimes, there are no specific reasons. But, it's the kind of thing where we just can't take a pain pill for.  It's just something that we have to deal with.

Oftentimes, I'll feel normal throughout the day and then just suddenly feel bummed out.  Sometimes the bummed-out feeling lasts a few minutes.  But, more often than not, it lasts for several hours and maybe even the rest of the day and night. Perhaps feeling this way at night could be just because of being tired. Who knows?!  But, it's something that will pass.

I do encourage all of you readers to please read my post regarding depression here:  http://servantofjesusandourlady.blogspot.com/2013/08/depression.html  Perhaps it will help some of you readers, as it is intended to.  It's about my own experiences with the stuff.

God bless you all!!  

Some Humor!!

If ya need a little laugh -- or a little pick-me-up -- here ya go, and especially for you "CSI" fans:

Earlier today, as I was at a local restaurant with my best friend, I saw this man, who was wearing a shirt with a funny statement on it!! On his shirt was the following statement:

"CSI:  Can't Stand Idiots"!!

I still laugh at this and I even commented to him, and the dear lady he was with, about it a couple of times.  I told him that from now on, whenever I watch "CSI", I'm gonna be thinking of that shirt -- that statement!! I mean, that's a GOOD ONE!! 

Random Thursday Thoughts!!

Well, since I really don't know what to post about, I'll just leave it up to The Holy Ghost as to what He Wishes me to type.

My best friend and I did spend some time visiting JESUS, in The Most Holy Eucharist, today.  I try to visit JESUS, in The Most Holy Eucharist, everyday.  He Is Very Lonely and I need the graces from Him!! I especially love to pray The Most Holy Rosary of The Blessed Virgin Mary when visiting JESUS in the Tabernacle. I love all of the special graces that I get, that I don't normally get when I'm the Rosary at home, when praying in front of Him in The Most Holy Eucharist!! More people need to visit Him!!

Just thinking about it, in these modern Catholic Churches, before and after the Mass -- the Novus Ordo Mass -- people FLAP their jaws as if they are having some kind of convention!! In fact, some of them start flapping their jaws practically beginning right after the Last Blessing. But, most of them wait until the Recessional Hymn is over with. However, the door is only just about arms-length away (I'm exaggerating a little -- but for some, it really is)!! So, why can't they just keep their traps shut until they're on the other side of the doorway threshold??!!

In these such Catholic Churches, JESUS Is either tossed off to the side somewhere or He's not even in the Church itself -- but in another room!! I mean, this is HIS HOUSE!! How would YOU feel if people treated YOU this way in YOUR OWN house?? How would YOU feel being TOSSED OFF to the side or made to stay in another room . . . in YOUR OWN HOUSE?? I don't think you would be very happy about it!! So, why do this to JESUS, OUR GOD??

These so-called Catholics flap their jaws in the House of God, and yet they never visit Him . . . not even for a few minutes after Mass!! Why?? I mean, I know that people are busy and stuff.  But, why can't they spend a few extra minutes visiting Him?? After all, they DO spend 5 - 10 minutes FLAPPING their jaws in Church, after Mass!! So, why can't they use that time, instead, privately speaking to JESUS while visiting Him?? Maybe they don't really and truly -- or fully, anyway -- believe that JESUS is Really and Truly, Body, Blood, Soul, and Divinity in the Most Holy Eucharist!!

You wouldn't see such actions in a Catholic Church that celebrates the Latin Tridentine Mass!! But, this is, sadly, such common occurance in a very Protestant - like Catholic Church that celebrates the Novus Ordo Mass.



O Sacrament Most Holy, O Sacrament Divine.  All Praise and all Thanksgiving be every moment Thine. 

HOT AND HUMID!!

As August is winding down, the heat and humidity are cranking up!! I don't like the humidity, but then who does??

But, before we know it, it will be snowing again!!

Most people think that it's God Who causes various weather conditions.  But, that's not always the case. Our government has the ability to control the elements. They have various resources to create earthquakes, tornadoes, hurricanes, etc.  Most people refuse to believe this.  They seem to think that the government is perfect and then question why God would allow such things to happen to us.  God allows it because He has given each and every one of us a free will and he never interferes with our free will. And, in our free will, we sin.  In our free will, we do all kinds of things that offend Almighty God and things that do not please Him.  But, as God Is not a dictator, He allows these things to happen because He respects our free will.

PRAISE GOD AND BLESSED BE GOD FOREVER for all things!!!

Just Another Blah Day!!

Today has just been one of those days where I've been feeling blah, again.  I've been feeling that way everyday for the past week.  I do take vitamins and herbs.

Speaking of herbs, I prefer herbs over medication. In fact, I'll use medication as a last resort. Herbs are healthy for people.  They're God's medication. Medication, itself, has way too many side effects!! Often times, we suffer the side effects to a certain kind of medication, and then we have to take MORE medication to combat the side effects from the other medication!! Herbal remedies may take a whole lot longer to work and to work effectively.  BUT, they are so much more healthier for everyone.  Just like medication, just because a certain kind of herbal remedy works for a certain situation, doesn't mean that it helps all people with that certain situation. Each persons body chemistry is different.

On a different 'note', as always, The Holy Rosary of the Most Blessed Virgin Mary will be on EWTN tonight at 9:30 p.m. EDT.  Don't forget to pray your Rosary today, PLEASE!! 

Syria and World Peace!!

What has happened to those poor, beloved, people in Syria over the past couple of days, is unthinkable and inhumane!! It's just so absolutely TERRIBLE!! Why would Syrians want to dump chemical weapons ON THEIR OWN PEOPLE who are TOTALLY INNOCENT??!! WHY??

Those poor people!!  Who knows what the survivors will have to endure the rest of their lives because of that !! And, I keep thinking of that poor beautiful little girl, whom The CBS Evening News showed. She kept asking the doctor:  "I'm alive? I'm alive? I'm alive?" . . . only to be told that her parents were killed with this chemical weapon!! And, the images of these poor Syrians keep going through my mind -- the images of them shaking uncontrolably!! How will the doctors be able to help these poor beloved people?? How will they know what kinds of medication to give them to counteract this chemical weapon?? Will some of these people ever stop shaking?? What will happen to them as a result of this??

What about these people who dumped these chemicals on their OWN PEOPLE?? Who will try to catch them and who will charge them with any kind of crime?? They might get away with this HORRIBLE crime on earth.  But, they won't be able to get away with it with God!!

All we can do is pray for them.  And, that's the BEST thing that anyone can do for them, besides the nurses and doctors who are trying to help heal them.

As long as people continue along their sinful lifestyle and ignore The Ten Commandments, these things will continue to happen . . . all around the world.  The U.S. will not be exempt from this stuff, either.

It was either Jesus or Our Lady Who Said, at The Apparition Site of Our Lady of the Roses, Mary Help of Mothers, that "Syria holds the key to peace or to the Third World War." (I'm paraphrasing a little bit) http://www.smwa.org/  However, whatever happens in this world, and whatever happens to us in the Next Life, totally depends on us!! It depends on how much we try to obey The Ten Commandments of Almighty God and how much we, Catholics and Christians, pray the daily Rosary, wear the Brown Scapular, and attend the Sacraments of the Church -- for those Christians who are not Catholic, it would depend on the same as what I just mentioned; but instead of the Sacraments, it would depend on how often they attend services at their own Church denomination.

So, we need to pray -- pray a lot!! Our prayers to Almighty God can lessen such disasters!!



For the repose of the souls of those who died as a result of the chemical weapons in Syria:  Eternal rest grant unto them, O Lord, and let Perpetual Light Shine upon them.  May their souls, and the souls of all the faithful departed, through the Mercy of God, rest in peace. Amen.

A Sweet Saturday!!

I went to Confession, the Rosary, and Mass at the local Catholic Church earlier!! The Sacrament of Holy Confession is SO BEAUTIFUL!! ALL Catholics MUST go to the Beautiful Sacrament of Holy Confession and confess ALL mortal sins and venial sins, too!! And, the Rosary is SO BEAUTIFUL because Our Lady, Herself, Is SO BEAUTIFUL!!  She keeps us close to The Sacred Heart of Her Divine Son, JESUS!! I don't know where'd I'd be without Our Lady!! PRAISE GOD AND BLESSED BE GOD FOREVER for the Holy Sacrament of Confession, for the Rosary, for Our Lady, for Her Brown Scapular, for the Most Beautiful Holy Sacrifice of the Mass, and for ALL Seven Sacraments of the Holy Roman Catholic Church!!

Today, I also found out that my buddy, Gabe, is a volunteer firefighter and is studying to become a professional firefighter!! How AWESOME!! I'm very proud of him!! GOD BLESS HIM AND PROTECT  HIM!!  May his Holy Guardian Angel protect him always!!

Now, there's a show about Pope Paul VI on EWTN and then they will have the Rosary on after that.  So, ALWAYS pray your Rosary!! The beautiful pearls from Heaven!! PRAISE GOD AND BLESSED BE GOD FOREVER!!!
