Go placidly amid the noise and the haste,

And remember what peace there may be in silence.

From Desiderata, by Max Ehrmann.


One of Desi's JUST FRIENDS,
William Wang,
from teenage years,
informed in the middle of the night
that
his loving Dad
had passed away in the evening.

May the GOoD Lord watch over William and loved ones
That they find peace in this hour of special need
Let the Angels take them under their wings
And love and paradise be in train...

Amen.

Special note to my EsteemedReaders --
Desiderata will take a two-day break
to be with some GOoDFriends in Fu Rong
for very much needed Rest and Reflection.

We'll converse again come Thursday, God Willing.


There Will Come a Day

Faith Hill


It's not easy
Trying to understand
How the world can be so cold
Stealing the souls of man
Cloudy skies rain down
On all your dreams
You wrestle with the fear and doubt
Sometimes it's hard, but you gotta believe

There's a better place
Where our Father waits
And every tear
He'll wipe away
The darkness will be gone
The weak shall be strong
Hold on to your faith
There will come a day
There will come a day

Wars are raging
Lives are scattered
Innocence is lost
And hopes are shattered
The old are forgotten
The children are forsaken
In this world we're living in
Isn't anything sacred

There's a better place
Where our Father waits
And every tear
He'll wipe away
The darkness will be gone
The weak shall be strong
Hold on to your faith
There will come a day
There will come a day

Song will ring out
Down those golden streets
The voices of earth
The angels will sing
Every knee will bow
Sin will have no trace
In the glory of His amazing grace
Every knee will bow
Sin will have no trace
In the glory of His amazing grace
There will come a day
There will come a day
Oh, there will come a day
There will come a day
I know there's coming a day
Coming a day
