Today's Lenten Thought
March 17 - Sing "When Irish Eyes are smiling" in the shower today. Find it on you tube.
I admit I don't know the words to the whole song. But here is the chorus
When Irish eyes are smiling,
Sure, 'tis like the morn in Spring.
In the lilt of Irish laughter
You can hear the angels sing.
When Irish hearts are happy,
All the world seems bright and gay.
And when Irish eyes are smiling,
Sure, they steal your heart away.
Here is where you can hear the Irish Tenors sing it:

Perhaps you'll want to sing along with them, if not enjoy it anyway! Today we are all Irish.
Years ago when I was first working in Allentown there was a Chinese restaurant that we
use to go to on our lunch hour, Kenny's and the one year just happen to be St. Patrick's Day
when we went. The little Asian man that greeted us at the door was all decked out in green
with a leprechaun type hat. He said to us, today we all Irish, in the most Asian accent you
can imagine. So I remember that today. What the heck - a little blarney is good now and then.
Happy St. Patrick's Day.
