This day in history from:

A Time to Reflect

"Do you know what it feels to be spit on your face and to have trash shoved down your throat? Do you know what it feels like to dig your own grave?
Do you know what it feels like to have throat slashed from ear to ear? Do you know what it feels like to be torched alive?
Do you know what it feels like to be humiliated and be impaled upon on a cross? And left to bleed to death for your amusement? You have never felt a single ounce of pain your whole life. Did you want to inject as much misery in our lives as you can just because you can?"

"You had everything you wanted. Your Mercedes wasn’t enough, you brats. Your golden necklaces weren’t enough, you snobs. Your trust fund wasn’t enough. Your vodka and Cognac weren’t enough. All your debaucheries weren’t enough. Those weren’t enough to fulfill your hedonistic needs. You had everything."

-Cho Seung-Hui



Rather than immediately dismissing these words as those of a madman, I think the United States should take the time to reflect on these words as they cast some truth about the decadence in first world countries at the expense of the poor ones... Maybe, it's time to reflect on why these things-- massacres, calamities, terrorist attacks, etc. are happening to them. Maybe it's just nature correcting itself in the midst of the decadence and moral decline that is happening there. And I don't need to demonstrate this decadence and decline, you know.

I could always say "You had this one coming..." or "This is all your undoing," but I won't. At least not yet...

Just my 5 pesos (approximately two cents, because even that exchange rate is a first world contrivance that is killing us) worth...

Side Prayers

PRAYER FOR GENEROSITY
Lord Jesus,
Teach me to be generous,
Teach me to serve You as You deserve
To give and not to count the cost,
To fight and not to heed the wounds,
To toil and not to seek for rest,
To labor and not to ask for reward,
except that of knowing
That I do Your Holy Will. Amen

THE LAWYER'S PRAYER
May every word I speak be from Your Truth...
I ask come from Your Wisdom...
May every case I handle receive Your Guidance...
May every heart, every life I touch, feel Your Love.

THE JABEZ PRAYER
And Jabez called on the God of Israel saying,
"Oh, that You would bless me indeed,
and enlarge my territory,
that Your Hand be with me,
that You would keep me from evil,
that I may not cause pain."

So God granted him what he requested.

Side Oath

I do solemnly swear that
I will maintain allegiance to

I will support its Constitution

the legal orders of the
duly constituted authorities therein;

I will not wittingly or willingly

false or unlawful suit,
nor give aid nor consent to the same;
I will delay no man for money or malice,
and will conduct myself as a lawyer
according to the best of my knowledge
and discretion with all good fidelity
as well to the courts as to my clients;
and I impose upon myself this voluntary obligation
without any mental reservation
or purpose of evasion.
So help me God.
