‘A winner says “It may be difficult but it’s possible.” A loser says “It may be possible but it’s too difficult.’ ~Author Unknown

The inauguration of Pope Francis was one of the main stories across the world yesterday. He made special reference to the fact that we are to be protectors of everything that is good around us. He added: “It means protecting all creation, the beauty of the created world, as the Book of Genesis tells us and as Saint Francis of Assisi showed us. It means respecting each of God’s creatures and respecting the environment in which we live. It means protecting people, showing loving concern for each and every person, especially children, the elderly, those in need, who are often the last we think about. It means caring for one another in our families: husbands and wives first protect one another, and then, as parents, they care for their children and children themselves, in time, protect their parents. It means building sincere friendships in which we protect one another in trust, respect, and goodness. In the end, everything has been entrusted to our protection, and all of us are responsible for it.” Some might say that this is possible but just too difficult. Others like Pope Francis are much more honest saying it may be difficult but that it’s possible and particularly possible with the help of God.
