Matthew chapter 5 "You have heard that it was said, "You shall love your neighbor and hate your enemy." But I say to you, Love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you, so that you may be children of you Father in heaven; for he makes his sun rise on the evil and the the good...."
I think this says that all people on earth are the fathers children and we are to look at all people as possible heirs of the Lord. It doesn't help God to bring his lost children back into the fold if we are treating them like enemies. Listen to your God.
Get Fit
I love AM yoga, but you know that. I am so happy when I go through the poses with him that I can still do them, maybe not as extreme as he does, but I still accomplish them. Do what you can and enjoy what you do!
On this day
1999 Was just a normal day - Nicole was in Middle School and had a volleyball game that I stopped to watch after work. Mom had made corned beef and cabbage for us for dinner. That was a special treat for me, I loved it and I think Nicole liked it too then. Maybe not the cabbage. I called Andy, it was and still is his birthday today. Andy turns 77 this year which is how old mom was in 1999. Just sayin.
1999 - The 20 members of the European Union's European Commission announced their resignations amid allegations of corruption and financial mismanagement. In case you thought this was a recent problem.
Carthage Tunisia
Commune[edit]
In 1920, the first seaplane base was built on the Lake of Tunis for the seaplanes of Compagnie Aéronavale.[93] The Tunis Airfield opened in 1938, serving around 5,800 passengers annually on the Paris-Tunis route.[94] During World War II, the airport was used by the United States Army Air Force Twelfth Air Force as a headquarters and command control base for the Italian Campaignof 1943. Construction on the Tunis-Carthage Airport, which was fully funded by France, began in 1944, and in 1948 the airport become the main hub for Tunisair.
In the 1950s the Lycée Français de Carthage was established to serve French families in Carthage. In 1961 it was given to the Tunisian government as part of the Independence of Tunisia, so the nearby Collège Maurice Cailloux in La Marsa, previously an annex of the Lycée Français de Carthage, was renamed to the Lycée Français de La Marsa and began serving the lycée level. It is currently the Lycée Gustave Flaubert.[95]
After Tunisian independence in 1956, the Tunis conurbation gradually extended around the airport, and Carthage (قرطاج Qarṭāj) is now a suburb of Tunis, covering the area between Sidi Bou Said and Le Kram.[96][97] Its population as of January 2013 was estimated at 21,276,[98] mostly attracting the more wealthy residents.[99] If Carthage is not the capital, it tends to be the political pole, a « place of emblematic power » according to Sophie Bessis,[100] leaving to Tunis the economic and administrative roles. The Carthage Palace (the Tunisian presidential palace) is located in the coast.[101]
The suburb has six train stations of the TGM line between Le Kram and Sidi Bou Said: Carthage Salammbo (named for Salambo, the fictional daughter of Hamilcar), Carthage Byrsa (named for Byrsa hill), Carthage Dermech (Dermèche), Carthage Hannibal (named for Hannibal), Carthage Présidence (named for the Presidential Palace) and Carthage Amilcar (named for Hamilcar).
In a more present time.But, the continuing history is very interesting.
Enjoy the day! Make it memorable! Happy Birthday to my brother Andy!!!
