I went to church today feeling a bit uneasy......difficult to xplain I know, couldn't put a finger on it......
Most of the hymns we sang for mass were a bit of a s@#t. And these were hymns we had been singing for quite sometime. The good news was that the sermon by Fr. Frank was truly thought provoking. We do find things difficult to forgive sometimes, don't we? I do that. There is a person whose attitude really gets to me. I mean this person is 50yrs old and behaves like a 2yr old. And this kind of open overt rudeness is crazy. Life's too short. Were it up to me, I would elect never to encounter this miserable person again. But because of who this person is, I gotta meet this person at least 7-8 times a year. Believe u me, time never seems to crawl slower than this......What do u say to that, Fr. Frank?
Mum just called........some goons bearing trishuls and saffron flags have attacked churches in Mangalore and Udupi. The violence in orissa felt nauseating but still, at a distance, things don't feel real. But when things happen in my own backyard........... It is really difficult to forgive, Fr. Frank.
Reading in the newspapers about bombs going off in Delhi........apparently as revenge for things that have happened nearly 15yrs ago...............any ideas now, Fr. Frank?

Don't know what Fr. Frank would say in response to all you've stated........but I definitely think that forgiving someone who has hurt you is one of the most difficult things to do. It's something we all struggle with as human beings........
And this morning was really bad...We sang all rubbish. Nothing seemed right only today.
