Estoy bailando.

Our hospital has started playing the Rocky Theme Song over the PA system to announce every COVID discharge. A welcome replacement of the constant "Bleps" heard even just a week ago. I don't know whose idea it was, but I must admit it was a good one. It's been awhile since we could laugh and dance. We all needed something good!

This is not just something good for us. This is something good for the world. Listen to it, and know what it means. How do you not at least join in a slight head bob?
This is for the patients, this is for the nurses, for the housekeepers, for the cafeteria workers, the postal workers, sanitation workers, teachers reaching their students remotely, the moms and dads working from home and keeping up with home schooling, this is for everyone fighting the frontlines on their knees and staying home!



I've appreciated Alicia Keys ever since "Empire State of Mind" and second her "Good Job" to everyone doing their part, respecting the need to social distance and to play their role in this war whether that role is at home, in a virtual classroom or boardroom, in a kitchen, in a hospital, etc.

For the confused feelings starting to creep out and invade society, for those disgruntled and unable to understand their isolation. For those finding it difficult to sacrifice in order to protect their fellow humankind... we can not falter in prayer! Pray for patience and understanding to take hold. Pray that self-sacrificing Love, as demonstrated by our Example, Jesus Christ, can be shared and exhibited greater than the confusion, the isolation and the fear. Pray that humanity can accept and return that kind of love at such a needful time as this.



Pray that we can all one day dance together!
Much Love and Prayer.


"Good Job"
Alicia Keys

You're the engine that makes all things go
And you're always in disguise, my hero
I see your light in the dark
Smile in my face when we all know it's hard
There's no way to ever pay you back
Bless your heart, know I love you for that
Honest and selfless
I don't know if this helps it but

Good Job
You're doing a good job
You're doing a good job
Don't get too down
The world needs you now
Know that you matter
Matter matter yeah

Six in the morning
And soon as you walk through that door
Everyone needs you again
The world's out of order
It's not as sound
When you're not around
All day on your feet
Hard to
Keep that energy
I know
When it feels like the end of the road
You don't let go
You just press forward
You're the engine that makes all things go
Always in disguise, my hero
I see a light in the dark
Smile in my face
When we all know it's hard
There is no way to ever pay you back
Bless your heart
Know I love you for that
Honest and selfless
I don't know if this helps it but

Good Job
You're doing a good job
You're doing a good job
Don't get too down
The world needs you now
Know that you matter
Matter matter yeah

The Mothers
The Fathers
The Teachers that reach us
Strangers to friends
That show up in the end
From the bottom to the top
The listeners that hear us
This for you
You make me fearles
