This morning I was deeply troubled about the guy at the meeting last night. I couldn't stop thinking about how his father must feel.

We had a good morning and made it to mass on time. I was resentful that my wife slept late while I was trying to feed the kids. At mass I was resentful that she kept giving in to the misbehavior of the smaller children. After church I sent her an article about how to get children to behave in mass and what the standards should be.

In the afternoon I was too wrapped up in my focus of mind and I griped too much at the kids when they interrupted.

In the evening I got a call from the guy at the meeting last night and he was threatening to kill himself. I tried to reassure him that his life was worth living but I don't think I did a very good job.

I got to talk to another friend who checked in.

I got to hug my kids a lot today.
I got to have a healthy mind and body today.
I got to be with God today.

Thanks be to God.
