We are called to carry our brothers and sisters to Christ: not only in a physical sense, but through prayer, through love and forbearance, through forgiveness. And just as we carry each other, we also present ourselves to the Great Physician, for the healing of every wound, every illness, every sin and infirmity.

An optimist is a person who sees a green light everywhere, while the pessimist sees only the red stoplight. The truly wise person is colorblind.
