A bird perching, preening, praying on the branch of a guava tree

I was walking one morning on my way home when I chanced upon this bird on the branch of a guava tree, PERCHING... PREENING... PRAYING!!!

A BIRD PERCHING ON THE BRANCH OF A GUAVA TREE.

A BIRD PREENING ITS FEATHERS ON THE BRANCH OF A GUAVA TREE.

A BIRD WITH ITS HEAD TILTING UP TO HEAVEN AS IF PRAYING ON THE BRANCH OF A GUAVA TREE.

Dream Prayer

"Lord of the Universe! I am Thine and my dreams are Thine; a dream have I dreamed and I know not what it is. If they be good dreams, strengthen and fortify them and may they be fulfilled like the dreams of Joseph; but if they require to be amended, heal them as the waters of Marah were healed by the hands of Moses, our teacher, as Miriam was healed of her leprosy, as Hezekiah from his illness, and like the waters of Jericho sweetened by the hands of Elisha. And as Thou didst turn the curse of the wicked Balaam into a blessing, so do Thou turn all my dreams for me into good."
AMEN.

Mother Teresa

"Peace begins with a smile."

"Joy is a net of love by which you can catch souls."

"Let us always meet each other with a smile, for the smile is the beginning of love."

"Do not wait for leaders; do it alone, person to person."

"Everytime you smile at someone, it is an action of love, a gift to that person, a beautiful thing."

"I am a little pencil in the hand of a writing God who is sending a love letter to the world."

"I know God will not give me anything I can't handle. I just wish He didn't trust me so much."

"If you can't feed a hundred people, then feed just one."

"We need to find God, and He cannot be found in noise and restlessness. God is the friend of silence. See how nature -- trees, flowers, grass -- grows in silence; see the stars, the sun and the moon, how they move in silence... We need silence to be able to touch souls."
