my mailbox

In my mailbox at work today there were a couple of very random things. One was a prayer rug, basically a piece of paper, that had one of those pictures of Jesus where you look at it and his eyes open... When I was younger there was one that hung on our wall and I remember being amazed the first time I looked at it and his eyes opened, today I tried it and I thought they opened, but it wasn't nearly as bold. Then I looked it up and its a scam, they send these out from a PO box in OK and then people are supposed to send back money. Why do people continue to take things that should be so pure and ruin them? The story about it (at least part) is at http://george.loper.org/trends/2003/Apr/815.html

The other thing was a little business card that on one side says :

A Thought for Today

This is the beginning of a new day! God has given me this day to use as I will. I can waste it or use it for good, what I do today is important because I'm exchanging a day of my life for it. When tomorrow comes, this day will be gone forever, leaving in its place, something I have traded for it. I want it to be gain not loss, good not evil, success not failure in order that I shall not regret the price I paid for it.

and on the back it says: Most Holy Spirit, soul of my soul, I adore you! and it goes on in that manner.

I thought this was interesting, no matter the religion, I'm always intrigued by it. The inner workings of all that I don't understand.

Besides that, I'm working on projects and enjoying the quiet. What are you doing today?
