<P>Thanks Mary Ellen ,</P>
<P>It was ' rock and roll' last night and frightening at 3:30 AM when I woke up
to my bed moving and things falling off shelves...... today it brings to mind
that everything beneath our feet remains temporal, uncertain, perishable ....and
yet, ' Christ is Risen ' ...everything above our feet is eternal, certain,
imperishable. Our prayers today like yours are with those who are displaced,
homeless and are grieving the death of loved ones. We're fine at via Napoli
58.</P>
<P>Thank you for asking. Love and Easter Blessings to you all .</P>
