Moment of Silence

In my public school, at the start of every day, we still have a 2 second moment of silence. What a disgrace! I cannot even ask for God's Blessing before I begin my first period English class. The public-address system drones, on a daily quote, and the pledge of allegiance to the USA flag. My students are still chatting. They overlook those two seconds...where they could privately say: "GOD...HELP ME, today!" How much more powerful their day could be, if only they used the 2-second opportunity, and meant it!

I have been singing in my head, the Chant - "For the sake of Your Sorrowful Passion..have Mercy on us, and on the whole world." as I focus and prepare for the day.
