Sometimes the Best Spiritual Director is Charlie Brown

This meme came up on my Facebook page this morning. I had to laugh because it's the same message I've been reading in the surrender novena and in one of my favorite books, Trustful Surrender to Divine Providence. Charlie Brown must have been reading it!

Reflecting on Stupidity! Are we still "the land of the free and the home of the brave?"

"The difference between stupidity and genius is that genius has its limits." Albert Einstein

"The perverse are hard to be corrected, and the number of fools is infinite." Ecclesiastes 1:15

I've always loved the description of the United States in the National Anthem: "The land of the free and the home of the brave." These days, however, it seems we live in the land of the lockdown and the home of the stupid.
