snow on the mountains today


Dear Tom,

I took this photo this morning with the first snows on the mountains here in Cochabamba.
It rained last night and so with the colder weather especially in the mountain above we hasd snow.
I didn't realize this until I went to the Franciscan church this morning at 7:30 a.m. Mass.
The gospel reading today was on Martha and Mary. The tension between the two. Martha being active and busy around the house and Mary sitting at the feet of Jesus and lisening to him.
The tension between Avtive and contemplative life and especially in our lives as Religious Brothers.
It is for this reason that we have Contemplative communities and also those who are active such as teaching and missionary communities.
I hope that you were able to get some sleep this night. You had mentioned that you couldn't sleep the night before because of the heat and that you weree sweating. I am sorry that I woke you up if you were trying to sleep.
Today I was trying to make contact with your brother benny and he was having problems with electicity and ther there was no light.
It is a big problem in India with no electricity many times during the day time or evening.
So it was difficult to make contact.
I had a restful day although I did jerk off this afternoon. It fellt good and then I fell asleep for about an hour.
So this is what I want to share with you today.

Have a nice day,
Frank.
