TODAY’S READING
In today's gospel reading, Jesus speaks of two events at the same time. The destruction of the temple and the end of time. The first was to be a time for fleeing; there can be no flight from the second. The first would come soon. Jesus refrains from predicting the time of the second. Perhaps Jesus was on the slopes of the Mount of Olives, looking down on the temple. How could they imagine the destruction of all this? The second event, the end of the world is also beyond all imagination. For most of us, the end will come with personal death. It does us well to meditate on what the catechism calls "The Four Last Things: death, judgment, heaven and hell.Catholic Campaign

TAKING RISKS
To laugh is to risk appearing a fool.
To weep is to risk appearing sentimental.
To reach out for another is to risk involvement. To expose feelings is to risk rejection.
To place your dreams before the crowd is to risk ridicule.To love is to risk not being
loved in return.To go forward in the face of overwhelming odds is to risk failure. But
risks must be taken because the greatest hazard in life is to risk nothing. The person who
risks nothing, has nothing, is nothing. He may avoid suffering and sorrow, but he cannot
learn, feel, change, grow of love. Chained by his certiudes, he is a slave. He has
forfeited his freedom. Only a person who takes risks is free. by "Edgar Gibson Jr.
