A Message From Jude

Welcome to Iddybud Journal

Bill Clinton: A Call To Action

President Clinton describes how we all can make a difference in the lives of others, leading us through the broad spectrum of CGI's efforts to enable and affect change. From the global leaders and CEOs of the Annual Meeting to the college students and future leaders of CGI U, CGI seeks to empower every citizen with the ability to take substantive action against the world's most pressing problems.

Two of the best kids you'd ever want to meet.

Prayer

by Maya Angelou

Father, Mother, God Thank you for your presence during the hard and mean days. For then we have you to lean upon.

Thank you for your presence during the bright and sunny days, for then we can share that which we have with those who have less.

And thank you for your presence during the Holy Days, for then we are able to celebrate you and our families and our friends.

For those who have no voice, we ask you to speak.
For those who feel unworthy, we ask you to pour your love out in waterfalls of tenderness.
For those who live in pain, we ask you to bathe them in the river of your healing.

For those who are lonely, we ask you to keep them company.

For those who are depressed, we ask you to shower upon them the light of hope.

Dear Creator, You, the borderless sea of substance, we ask you to give to all the world that which we need most--Peace.

--Maya Angelou Copyright (c) 12/2005 Published: 12/25/2005 Parade Magazine

Jude Says...

"Don't forget to stop and smell the roses."

desiderata - by max ehrmann

go placidly amid the noise and haste, and remember what peace there may be in silence.

as far as possible, without surrender, be on good terms with all persons. speak your truth quietly and clearly; and listen to others, even to the dull and the ignorant, they too have their story.

avoid loud and aggressive persons, they are vexations to the spirit. if you compare yourself with others, you may become vain and bitter; for always there will be greater and lesser persons than yourself.

enjoy your achievements as well as your plans. keep interested in your own career, however humble; it is a real possession in the changing fortunes of time. exercise caution in your business affairs, for the world is full of trickery. but let this not blind you to what virtue there is; many persons strive for high ideals, and everywhere life is full of heroism.

be yourself. especially, do not feign affection. neither be cynical about love, for in the face of all aridity and disenchantment it is perennial as the grass.
take kindly to the counsel of the years, gracefully surrendering the things of youth. nurture strength of spirit to shield you in sudden misfortune. But do not distress yourself with imaginings. many fears are born of fatigue and loneliness.

beyond a wholesome discipline, be gentle with yourself. you are a child of the universe, no less than the trees and the stars; you have a right to be here. and whether or not it is clear to you, no doubt the universe is unfolding as it should.

therefore be at peace with God, whatever you conceive Him to be, and whatever your labors and aspirations, in the noisy confusion of life, keep peace in your soul. with all its sham, drudgery and broken dreams, it is still a beautiful world.

be cheerful.

strive to be happy.

Max Ehrmann c.1920
