Watcher of the Morn': More fireworks

The start of the finale. The racket you hear at about 50 seconds in is the boats in the harbor and up the creek blaring their horns in appreciation.

Words of Wisdom

"In his mind a man plans his course, but the Lord directs his steps." -Proverbs 16:9

"We are not the sum of our weaknesses and failures; we are the sum of the Father's love for us and our real capacity to become the image of His Son." -Pope John Paul the Great, World Youth Day, Toronto, 2002

“Consult not your fears but your hopes and your dreams. Think not about your frustrations, but about your unfulfilled potential. Concern yourself not with what you tried and failed in, but with what it is still possible for you to do.” -Blessed John XXIII

"Those who have hope must live different lives." - Pope Benedict XVI, homily, Nationals Park Mass, April 17, 2008

“We hope that each of you realize that a career and a vocation are not the same thing and that you find your true vocation in the days ahead. A vocation is a commitment to your whole self to something that will raise you beyond yourself. If you are true to your vocation you will always be true to yourself.” - Carl Anderson (Supreme Knight, Knights of Columbus) & his wife, Dorian, Catholic University of America commencement, May 2008

"Let nothing disturb thee, nothing affright thee;
all things are passing; God never changeth; Patient endurance attaineth to all things... " - St. Teresa of Avila

"How can I repay the Lord for his goodness to me? The cup of salvation I will raise; I will call on the Lord's name. ... Your servant, Lord, your servant am I; you have loosened my bonds. A thanksgiving sacrifice I make; I will call on the Lord's name. " -- cf. Psalm 116: 10-19

"Out of the depths I have cried to thee, O Lord:
Lord, hear my voice. Let they ears be attentive to the voice of my supplication.
If thou, O Lord, wilt mark iniquities: Lord, who shall stand it.
For with thee there is merciful forgiveness: and by reason of thy law, I have waited for thee, O Lord. My soul has relied on his word:
my soul has hoped in the Lord.
From the morning watch even until night, let Israel hope in the Lord.
Because with the Lord there is mercy: and with him plentiful redemption.
And he shall redeem Israel from all his iniquities." -- Psalm 130
