Templates, High-heels, and What Really Matters

I traded in vanity for practicality. The other template which caused me to lose all my "widgets" was like a beautiful pair of high heels, it looked great but was way too much trouble. Today was one of those days... I only have a few minutes tonight so this is all the progress I'll be able to make. Check out the clock (to your left)! It isn't pretty but I thought it was really fun so I put it up for a while.

So as not to leave you without anything edifying, here is a link to a little article about Our Lady Help of Christians. Today being "one of those days," reminded me that I am powerless. God's grace and abundant mercy is the source of all the good that I have, and it comes to me from the hands of our Lady.

Prayer To Our Lady, Help Of Christians:

Most Holy Virgin Mary, Help of Christian, how sweet it is to come to your feet imploring your perpetual help. If earthly mothers cease not to remember their children, how can you, the most loving of all mothers forget me? Grant then to me, I implore you, your perpetual help in all my necessities, in every sorrow, and especially in all my temptations. I ask for your unceasing help for all who are now suffering. Help the weak, cure the sick, convert sinners. Grant through your intercessions many vocations to the religious life. Obtain for us, O Mary, Help of Christians, that having invoked you on earth we may love and eternally thank you in heaven.(By St. John Bosco)

And that is what really matters!
