We Get What We Give (Sometimes)

Congratulations to my son Ben who is graduating from the University of St. Thomas this week.

In honor of this great achievement, I’ve decided to debut his music video from a recent class project.

One question: How come I never had projects like this when I was in school?

Anyway, here’s a small glimpse of what four years of college (and some conservative upbringing from two imperfect but extremely wise parents) resulted in:

So whatever you wish that others would do to you, do also to them, for this is the Law and the Prophets.  (Matthew 7:12)

But love your enemies, and do good, and lend, expecting nothing in return, and your reward will be great, and you will be sons of the Most High.  (Luke 6:35)

Each one must give as he has decided in his heart, not reluctantly or under compulsion, for God loves a cheerful giver.  (2 Corinthians 9:7)

Momento Mori not only emphasizes our reasons for living but also results in a joyous generosity (even if our giving is not always reciprocated).
