Catholic Life & Reflection
RUOK? Day
I feel that RUOK? Day was well timed this year!
I was reminded by a dear friend that it is actually ok to not be ok, and that might not be for the whole day, but rather moments through the day. In those moments I take a deep breath, go for a quick walk or have a cuppa. Reaching out to ask for help is not something I am great at so I keep connected to my family and colleagues as much as possible.
Please reach out if needed. We're all in this together.
Maybe pop this short prayer somewhere prominent to remind you.
God of grace and wisdom,
You continually raise up good people who show with their lives that they follow Your inspiration.
Let our lives be true to all that our faith teaches, to respond to others’ needs with an open and compassionate heart, so that we will grow more and more in Your son’s likeness.
We ask this through Christ our Lord. Amen.
What the students are learning about
I am constantly amazed at the wonderful work of students.
Tai James created a 3D version of the Lord’s prayer.

My dependence on IT at the moment is very high (isn’t everyones?). My husband is in IT support and I have one son at Uni and the other in Year 5 so we are all very dependent on it working.
Please watch the clip below from the fabulous British comedy The IT Crowd. If you have never seen it I can’t recommend it enough. This clip is so perfect for right now.
Ecclesiastes 8:15
15 So I commend enjoyment, for there is nothing better for people under the sun than to eat, and drink, and enjoy themselves, for this will go with them in their toil through the days of life that God gives them under the sun. (NRSV)
God bless, stay safe and well.
