iDVD and other regrets

In an effort to preserve the pictures I have taken, I decided to take a friend's advise and use iDVD instead of just burning the files into a DVD. With that strategy, I can put the pictures and videos in presentable form, playable in any standard DVD player.

While it sounded like a good idea, I think I'm regretting it because I started the burn process at around 11:00 a.m. and it's not yet finished as I type this blog entry. Arrrrgh!

Moving on to another regret, I think I'm going to regret my decision to skip my choir service over at the EDSA Shrine today. From the messageboards, it is readily apparent that not only did Mr. Norman Agatep attend the mass, but also other Bukas Palad members as well. I chose not to attend due to the election work I have been doing, that likewise appears to be for naught, as we are not even sure we will have any work come election day... work that I desperately need for pure financial considerations...

Oh well. We all have our regrets... Have a nice weekend anyway. And please vote wisely...please?

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.
