We all go through times when we aren't at our best. It can be easy during these times to be filled with guilt at all that we aren't doing, but this only serves to separate us more from those we love and want to serve.

We all have limits which help us to keep our life in balance. Knowing these limits doesn't only help us take care of ourselves, but our relationship with God and others as well. We cannot give what we do not have.

We all have our burdens to bear, but we also have many joys and blessings that come with our suffering. May we be drawn closer to God by focusing on the way life isn't fair to our advantage rather than the disadvantage.

While we all have the same goal of Heaven, how we attain this goal is unique and different. We are made to help each other on the way, but not to compare ourselves to others. Someday we will all be together in Paradise.
