SPLINTERS FROM THE CROSS?

The Hermit Talks:

Has the Wood of The Cross placed any splinters on our hands yet? Are we starting to feel some of our pains and sufferings or are we going on vacation? Perhaps Atlantic City, The Bahamas or Mexican Beaches with fancy hotels? Maybe were just going to go out and eat a fancy, expensive dinner at a nice restaurant. What is a nice restaurant? Some of us continuously need to find an outlet to diffuse our frustations that buildup from our jobs and vocations. We look for that rich life. We search for ways of finding joy,happiness. We sometimes find that we are alone with nobody around when we need them. Loneliness,abandonement,material poverty,spiritual poverty. Our emotions sometimes play games on us.
