I got this in my email today and love it.
It's my prayer for each of you today...
May God bless you with discomfort
At easy answers, half-truths and superficial relationships
So that you may live deep within your heart
May God bless you with anger
At injustice, oppression and exploitation of people
So that you may work for justice, freedom and peace
May God bless you with tears
To shed for those who suffer pain, rejection, hunger and war
So that you may reach out your hand to comfort them and
To turn their pain into joy
May God bless you with foolishness
To believe that you can make a difference in the world
So that you can do what others claim cannot be done
To bring justice and kindness to all our children and the poor

On Friday, I took a beautiful walk through the Buda side of the river (I live in the Pest side). Directly across the river is Batthány Tér, so I headed there to see what I could find. First was the Szent Anna Templom (Saint Anna Church). This beautiful church is older than the United States, as it was finished in 1762. It's weird to imagine something that old...
... but if that was hard for you to imagine, this will be even harder. These next two houses are actually houses used in the Middle Ages. One was said to be the best inn in Buda.
This Turkish-style building is the Király Bathhouse. All throughout Budapest, and really all throughout Hungary, are these natural thermal springs. The building seems to be a bit shabby, but these baths date back to the 1500s, when Turks occupied Hungary. Perhaps one of these days I'll actually try one out. Probably should have brought a swimsuit, eh?
And what would a bunch of pictures be without a random silly one? I found the Hungarian "Thinker"! No, really, this is Taras Shevchenko, a Ukranian poet and artist. I would tell you about him, but it's all stuff that I found on wikipedia, so I'll just let you type his name in for yourself :D
