People were born into a ‘place’ the cabinet-maker who had installed the kitchen presses. That's in the system, and the way to hold or improve that place was to why I was there. The family had not yet moved in). It was the cultivate the patronage of someone a little higher up in the pecking most vulgar and tasteless interior I have ever seen. In fact there order. This system was based on an assumption of inequality was no interior at all: it was all somehow outward; it was made to among people. In the hope of getting some slight perk from their impress, and the effect was a feeling of desolation. Every object patrons, the poor had to grovel before them, cap in hand, and there seemed chosen for its price, not for itself. If this is what learn flattery. This system never quite dies out, and when we get happens to things, imagine what happens to people when they are even a whiff of it today it brings out the killing instinct in us. It is seen in purely monetary terms. terrible to think that in most parts of the world, for most of human history, it has been the normal way.

Parish of Sunday 3 September 2017 Newry Twenty-Second Sunday in Ordinary Time We would rather be ruined than changed, There’s a striking phrase in John's gospel, "You will have sorrow, but We would rather die in our dread your sorrow will turn into joy" (16:20). He did not say “Your sorrow will Than climb the cross of the moment be replaced by joy.” Your joy will somehow be born out of the heart of And let our illusions die. your sorrow. Then it will be able to endure; it will not see sorrow as a (W.H. Auden) threat and an enemy. It will not be at the mercy of sorrowful circumstances. Sorrow itself will give birth to a strange deep kind of The word 'suffer' comes from two Latin words, 'sub' (under) and 'ferre' joy.

It’s very shape thankful for the couple of centimes, but it was the polite thing to suggests contradiction. Jesus has the right to ask us to carry our say. Literal translation can often sound absurd. Commentators cross because he carried his, and was broken by it. It was the rush to explain that the Semitic expression “hate father and Pharisees, not he, who liked to “tie up heavy burdens, hard to mother” does not actually mean that in English. It means “to love bear, and lay them on the shoulders of others; while they less.” So why do English translations still say “hate”? themselves are unwilling to lift a finger to move them” (Mt 23:4). Our life’s crosses will not look like his, but they will have the same The translator is a traitor, the Italians say: traduttore traditore.
