One who loves till you close your eyes, is a *Mother*.
One who loves without
an expression in the eyes, is a
*Father*.

Japanese and Fishing
The Japanese have
always loved fresh fish🐠🐟🐠🐟
But the water close to Japan has not held many fish🐠🐟 for decades.
So to feed the Japanese population, fishing boats got bigger and went farther than ever.

| Daijiworld Media Network - Mangaluru Mangaluru, Dec 28: They say we must never forget those who have helped us or been an important part of our journey of life. They may be our teachers who taught us the alphabet, maids and nannies who looked after us when we were little, a friend who stood by us in our toughest times, or a distant relative whose timely help saved the day. |

Synopsis of Mary Mother of God Sunday (Jan 1) & New
Year's message
Introduction: Since we celebrate the Feast
of Mary, the Mother of God on New Year’s Day, may I take this opportunity
to wish you all a Happy and Peaceful New Year? I pray that the Lord Jesus
and His mother Mary may enrich your lives during the New Year with an
abundance of God’s blessings. Today’s Feast of Mary, the Mother of God
is a very appropriate way to begin a new year, reminding us to rely on the
powerful intercession of our Heavenly Mother. The Church observes this day also
as the World Day of Peace and invites us to pray specially for lasting
peace in the world throughout the New Year.
MOTHER - Illustrations
No man is poor who has had a godly mother.
Abraham Lincoln.
An ounce of mother is worth a ton of priest.
Spanish proverb.
When Robert Ingersoll, the notorious skeptic, was in his heyday, two college students went to hear him lecture. As they walked down the street after the lecture, one said to the other, “Well, I guess he knocked the props out from under Christianity, didn’t he?” The other said, “No, I don’t think he did. Ingersoll did not explain my mother’s life, and until he can explain my mother’s life I will stand by my mother’s God.”
