Beautiful post

I simply HAVE to share this lovely post from a member of the Share-Care-Prayer Club.

At Last, A Club that Actually WORKS!

I've learned a few things about forming an online club through trial and error.  Mostly, I must admit, through error!

One mistake was in trying to have the same club in different places.

Another was in starting a club, or group, on a host that kept asking for my mobile phone number when I tried to log back

in.  I do not have a mobile phone, because the circumstances of my life make it unnecessary.  Or, to put it in a less pompous, high-falutin' way, I just plain don't need one.

And perhaps the biggest mistake of all was when I tried to change this blog into a club, with a clubhouse.  That, too, did 

not work, so I've changed it back into just a blog. I have, however, kept some of the "rooms," so it wasn't a total waste

of time.

So, finally, I went to this Catholic social network, which I'd actually discovered more than a year ago on "Life on the Rock",

and which I already belonged to, and I became ACTIVE.  I joined several groups, and I also started one, which I've named

The Share-Care-Prayer Club.  And, thank God, this club is actually ACTIVE!!!

Death With Dignity

I want to die with dignity.  This is important to me.

But when I say that I want to die with dignity, what do I mean?

Well, it has nothing, absolutely nothing, to do with my physical

or mental condition.

No.

When I say that I want to die with dignity, I mean that, at whatever time God has appointed for my death, I want to

die in the state of grace.

After all, there is nothing dignified about going to  H-E-double

toothpicks!
