    Thank you Fr. Hugh for taking the time to elaborate on this Parable. For me, It is very insightful, educational and helpful to understand God’s Ways and how sometimes how I think something might mean, may not always be the case. Tom.

      Thanks, Tom, for commenting on this parable. God’s ways are not our ways, and this parable about the good and bad seed living together shows the depths of His compassion for us.

    Hi Father Hugh Duffy.
    Barry here.
    We are having a Carmelite Class reunion shortly for the class of 1971-1976.
    If you are interested I could arrange to patch you in and get you to be part of this get together.
    Just let me know.
    BTW you would be one of the few Carmelites that I would throw this invite out to.
    Regards.
    Barry

    Hi, Barry. Thank you for the kind invitation to the 1971-1976 class reunion. I still remember, fondly, those halcyon days teaching in Castlemartyr.
    My problem is the weather. I’m visiting with family in New Jersey and I’m struggling with the climate after being acclimatized to the much warmer Florida weather.
    My warmest regards to the great class of 1971-1976, and sincere regrets I cannot attend.
