I so choose
...
40A leper came to him begging him, and kneeling
he said to him, "If you choose, you can make me clean." 41Moved with pity, Jesus stretched out
his hand and touched him, and said to him, "I do choose. Be made clean!"

taken from a man but one thing:
the last of the human freedoms ...
to
choose one's attitude in any given set of circumstances,
to choose one's own
way.*

Jon sometimes paints with
us at Memories in the Making but it is difficult
for him.
He is our youngest client at
the Senior Resource Center and
recently grew a beard
and mustache so he would look older.
Four of our 'Chew and Chat'
group had lunch together on Thursday.

Immediately the leprosy left him,
and he was made clean. After sternly warning him he sent him away at once,
saying to him, "See that you say nothing to anyone; but go, show yourself to the
priest, and offer for your cleansing what Moses commanded, as a testimony to
them." But he went out and began to proclaim it freely, and to spread the word,
so that Jesus could no longer go into a town openly, but stayed out in the
country; and people came to him from every quarter.
